T68iKING> All I can tell you that is that Orange hopes to launch the P800 during feb for about 249.00 on contract.
Probably means that it will be middle of march though.
Personally, hope it will be feb, cos I can upgrade middle of feb, and I get it discounted as I work for them. (around 33% cheaper..)

@Caspa: Where abouts you work and for whom? Can you only get discount on sim-free or on contracts as well, and how much discount is that (25%? Friend of mine works at fones4u and thats how much they get)?
Hope its early Feb as i cant wait forever, so is it OFFICIAL; Orange are getting it first?

Orange doesn't have the exclusive as far as i know. we do get told, i believe we had the exclusive for moto's v70. why (the v70) -- i don't know.
(P.S) Nokias 3650 is due out on Orange in May. Wierd looking handset!! |

Shibby, the P800 may be in the UK site as 'available'..but I wouldn't trust the site... in the Philippine website, it isn't even listed! But it's been out here for almost a month now. So, I think the websites aren't a very reliable source of info. |

I orderred mine from the e-shop a few weeks ago (see previous post on this topic) and will call them asap to get further news, but no, I haven't received it yet.
I'm realistically guessing another 2 weeks at least before it's in my hands; That way, if it comes before I can be slightly surprised rather than disapointed that Ive been waiting bloody ages...  |

Ok, got a bit more bored at work than first thought so called SE, spoke to Justin with whom I originally orderred the set.
Still no date, doesn't think it will be this week now, although he's not guaranteeing it for next either. He says that it wouldn't be unheard of for it to turn up this week as sometimes they announce a random date but the stock turns up the next day.
He did mention that CPW have apparently started saying this week for deliveries but a quick call to CPW HQ confirmed that they don't know anything either (although I spose as there's people here who work there, they might know also).
Keep vigilant guys - if anyone spots a pile of P800's in a shop let's have the details on here sharpish!

We still got no dates...but expect late feb...SE haven't given any dates to anyone so no one can give an exact... As you have experienced, their own Eshop don't know, thats an indication of how little is even known within the industry!

Is the E-shop really 'their own' or a 3rd party company trying to look like Sony Ericsson like the Nokia shop in Regent street tries to look like Nokia (but is really carphone warehouse)? |

I'm starting to wonder the same.
However, the principal of the waiting means that I have to have one or else this will have p*ssed me off for no reason... |
