Just called SE e-shop (2-18-2003 @ 2 pm). Now I know they have no clue what is going on. I am like order 210. Best estimate I could get was end of March. Anyone know what is holding them up? What major problems are they trying to resolve? I don't want to pay to be a BETA tester.

Also, they can't seem to fax me the required signature verification form. Anyone else have problems here.

I pre ordered this phone from Expansys last August! Cancelled that order and went direct. Either way, I have a feeling that I am not going to see this phone for a long time.

yeah SE is stupid, all those dumb reps don't know shit, just pulling random dates out of there asses... I'm sick and tired of waiting, I called them over 10 times already, and its a new answer each time... I ordered mine on the 7th, and I really hope they start receiving shipments in any day now... my patience has reached its point in waiting for this damn phone... the month is almost over... if this extends until March, I really have nothing to say to SE accept this is really terrible business that you guys have making us wait and wait and telling us when to expect the phone and going back and changing dates over and over again, I mean wtf is taking so long? What is the wait? How come other countries have em already and not us? What's going on? Can someone please tell us, arghhh...

Ordered mine yesterday and the rep told me that the first shipment will be arriving on Feb 24th and the next on March 15th. But as we know we cant trust what a rep tell us so we just have to wait.

well dear friend i ordered mine from SE on Feb 12th and then called SE to confirm and the person there transferred me through 4 different reps, only to tell me that it might be released in 3-4 weeks.
I say screw the reps!!!They have ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE on what is going on!!

Take care guys...

Just called SE US e-shop @2-20-03. They said still muddy on availability answer. At least the guy admitted that he had no idea. If the 24th were the due date, don't you think the e-shop would know, or are they just as skiddish at getting burned by the SE producers' claims as we are?

Arghhhh!

Well it looks as though the peeps in UK got there p800s already, must mean that they got it directly shipped from SE, I doubt they got it from a 3rd party, hrmm, I just hope the SE E-Shop in US will have em next week, sigh, this is killing me...

Any update on availability from eshop in the US? Any who ordered get the signature verification form faxed to them (which apparently is necessary for amounts over $500.00). I have tried 5 times to 3 different known working fax numbers and nothing has come through. Stall tactic?

Also, anyone know where a service center is near San Francisco for this phone (anticipating need for updates to be flashed)?

TIA

Digitalic,

Orange received the first shipment of the P800 from SE which is why it is out early. SE are meant to be shipping the UK Sim free version this week sometime but there are a few rumours around as to the reasons why Orange got their phones first and why the Sim free version is delayed a little longer.

@Ze3eZ

When I called SE to order the phone on the second of Feb, they said they would fax me the credit card verification sheet. After not recieving it for a couple hours, I called them back and had them fax it to another number. I recieved it right away. The guy said he tried the original fax number and it didn't work (later found it was unplugged). He then said he couldn't call me back because I have a five digit extension at work and his form would only fit four!

While on the phone, he gave me an account number. I tried this on the tracking page on SE's site the other day. I was shocked when the number he gave me was one digit too long(I thought SE had some issues with forms)! Sooo....called them back two days ago. Apparently, there's an account number and a sales number for tracking. The lady that told me this really didn't have a clue about when backorders would be filled. She said 3-4 weeks.

Called SE eshop today @ 8:30 am pacific time - still on back order there. I am thinking of paying the extra $100.00 and buying from someone else. Anyone know of a url showing where the sony service centers are? (in case I need to flash). Also, what is the latest firmware version - is it R1D or R1F?

I spoke w/ a wholeseller and they said that they should get them end of March and they would ship to stores the next day. I ordered 5 and i have 3 left. I'll let you guys know when I get them. You can check the webpage. http://www.beyondbluwireless.com
