The V640i is waiting for me at the local Courier depot. I'll have it tomorrow!

Lol I would do a review, but I think everyone has seen enough W910i reviews and info, that it would not be so worth it! In NZ we get stuff so late that elsewhere, everyone is over the thing already!

Looking forward to the V640i review, thats something people haven't seen much of before! I bet you're pretty excited!

Just a couple of pics and some quick comments on my new V640i...









The Sony Ericsson UI just keeps getting better and better! Menu font is the same as V630i but the soft key is smaller on L and R with a 3rd soft key in the middle with Italics.
Love the new aimated Media player! No H for HSDPA yet but I'll test it further on the weekend.

Niiiice!

How does it feel in your hand? Pretty solid huh? That's what I thought when I had a very brief go on one at the vodafone store. It looks really cool, A200 is great isn't it!?

It feels great to hold because the lower part is rubber while the uuper is plastic. It's very good looking in a sort of 'V600 meets 1st gen iPod Nano' type style. It also looks thinner than it is thanks to the curved edges and the I like the overlapping circle styling on the back too. First impressions are definately positive I was hoping for Havanna Gold but Quick Black is fine because it won't show scratches easily.

I'm expecting even better things from the T650. I can cope with a less stylie media player if the 3.2 Mp camera is up to the job.

I'm loving the red touches along the side, etc. That's awesome! And speaking of cameras, what is the 2MP unit like? V630i quality?

Hehe I guess the K618i/K610i/V630i photo thread died today!

Want to win an N95? Well go to the Vodafone NZ online shop via google. I believe you have to go via google (or a search engine) so go to google and search for the shop and then click any link that will take you directly to the shop, eg. http://www.vodafone.co.nz/shop

You should then see a large banner asking you to do a survey. The survey is mostly about the importance of advertising and searching (hence the google thing) and it only takes a couple of minutes. Then you put in your email and you're in the draw.

Oh and BTW, the W200i now comes with a free set of speakers, for the usual price of $199. Or if you're stupid, you can still buy it without the free speakers... Odd.

I expect it'll be V630i quality but no matter cause I'm on record as being very happy with the V630i camera... I'll post some pics probably this weekend when I have some spare time; quite busy this week.

Poor Jojo!

Oh I didn't mean V630i quality as a bad thing! I think it was probably one of the best non-autofocus 2MP phone cams around! I made some great shots with it too, so I guess I can go on record as being pretty happy with it too!

Haha, I don't think Jojo will worry. He's been gone for over a month now. Never said goodbye...

The T650 is no longer listed on EI's website!
I'd better give them a call. Maybe they dropped the price to $360 to clear final stock?

Yeah I noticed that last night! Maybe it's an error, but it doesn't look too hopeful unfortunately.

Other parallel importers are selling them pretty cheap now anyway.

W890i for $600 at Expert Infotech! Thats not much more than they sell the W910i for! Not bad in my opinion!
