But guys, do you think that SE will introduce the P800 with such a high price tag?! It is tagged $700-$1150!!! Or maybe in Sweden only coz they got taxes?!

when a phone is released there in the UAE does it support arabic? Do they also have an arbic/enlgish keypad?

Some of the estimates can be thrown out of the window straight away, look at the price of the developers kit, it has to be a fair whack cheaper than that!?!?

@ SveNGaLi

The P800, till now does not support arabic, remember that is a new Symbian OS that is on the P800, so it may take some time until you see the arabic support on the P800, perhaps...

@ jamiescott

You are right! I did'nt notice!! Anyhow, any information regarding its REAL price? Even approximately?!

Thanx!

wow, i think a $1000 would be very expensive indeed..hmmmm..i thought it would be in range of $800..i shall see that..prices sometimes drop dramatically..SE might test it out at a high price then drop if if demand is not there. over $1000 will be alot for a phone.
Its good news regardless..just imagine, if u had to pay this much only for a phone without any 128 meg card would svck really.

What do u think devilish?? would u buy it for such a price tag????

@Devilishcry: Wishful thinking. I'd say 800-1000 Euros is a more realistic price.
