Called O2 the other day enquiring about the release date of the P990 in the UK (as I am eligible for an upgrade), and was told it's released on the 14th of August. Can anyone confirm they have heard this date too?

The phonehouse dont know the delivery day they dont have any day yet on the intranet ,in the begining they where told in the end of july. But they have told me that they will have 2 bach, but they dont know when. He was "guessing" middle of august for the first bach. And a couple of week more, 2-4 for the big orders.
And three (tre) in sweden will also take in p990i but noone there knows any date. They will know it when everyone else will... |

I agree with Jah...
Its all about whether your after a PHONE-PDA or a PDA-PHONE...
I need a PHONE-PDA... so... its gotta be the P series...
For me its the actual design that wins me over, the fact that with flip on the P series operates like a standard phone is key...

Just found a website (UK based) claiming to have the P990 in stock:

Has anyone had any dealings with this company? |

Good find, but not actually in stock (called the retailer)!

its no different to any other phone in that respect (except for the length of time).
we never knew exactly when the K800 was coming available, or the M600, or...
we only ever know when someone reports here that it is physically in stock somewhere, and usually its not long for it to be available in other places too

Anyone know about how mobile phone wholesalers and retailers work in the UK? The reason I ask is that I heard that Expansys don't deal with SE but through a wholesaler; this same wholesaler supplies many online retailers (which would explain why many quote similar delay periods/delivery dates). From a bits of information I think there may be 2 or more wholesalers in the UK dealing with the P990 - now if we could find out where they store them...perhaps a few of us could arrange a raiding party....no just joking But any information on this subject would be interesting

i asked a guy from alfa (Mumbai, Irla) (alfa is a famous shop for mobile phones in Mumbai) and he said 15th august p990i will be out in Mumbai and the price will start with 40,000 rupees now thats killing man !!
T200 -> T68i -> T610 -> K700i -> P910i -> W800i -> P990i -> M600i -> P1-> Nokia E71 -> X1i -> X10 -> Arc S -> Sony Z1 -> Sony Z Ultra -> Sony Z3+ -> iPhone 6 -> iPhone 7 Plus -> iPhone X -> iPhone XS Max |

Mobiles release dates have been the curse of the Industry for years... With the retailers feeling the wrath of the unhappy customer due to giving information provided to them in good faith...
I have been out of it for quite a few years but im sure its the same story today as it was back then...
@ Jah...
Not sure who will be carrying it but surely 20:20 Logistics must be a contender?! |
