Gola
We usualy get what the Europeans get, so im pretty sure Media Go will come with it, the phone manufacturers seem to be very nice to us South Africans, Samsung gave us the Innov8 16GB only, NOKIA give something like a 2year navigation license yet in Europe its a 3month one, SE gave us both black and white W900s as well as a 8GB MicroSD with the X1, and i think 2GB with G900 which in Europe didnt come with a mem card.
HOBBS CONGRATS ON GETTING YOUR iPhone!! So how is it? Are you already tempted to pack away the E90 and use your iPhone3G as your main phone? Which one did you get? 16GB?

@Hobbs, i understand how you feel wrt the sms typing, as its fun on the 5800 too. The Wireless monkey (who remembers him) and i have been having a discussion one day regarding the iPhone and the 5800. He feels its nokias failed attempt at an iPhone Killer, and i feel its in a totally different class...

Rhino,thats very true. I played with a 5800xm before geting a go at the iPhone, and they felt worlds apart. 5800s UI i felt very comfortable with, its like a very "safe" option if you want to get all the best features on a user friendly smartphone OS thats not too flashy, iPhone was just the totaly opposite lol, i cant completely explain it cause theres just NOTHING like it out there all i know is that after using one i wanted it SOOO bad.
