I've played with SO505iS today and I'm realy good surprised.It's very nice phone and the display is just brilliant.I liked the camera too.I haven't heared the ringtones,but I'm sure thay're great too.They were selling me this phone for $500 (new it the box),but I can't use it here in Bulgaria,so I didn't get it,but I've talked to the boy which owned the phone to decrease the price to $100 and I'll get it.I cannot use it but I would be proud to have it.Maybe he'll sell it to me for this price,because he hasn't got another buyer than me and he can't use it too,so if I get it I'll post my thoughts for it. |

Have you seen this S700 on eBay:

Are they actually selling, or is that bit about market research a disclaimer?

I've read in many articles that the s700 its Not going to support Mophun games, but i've also read in other that it Is going to support mophun...
Is it or is it not going to have mophun ???

I havent heard of it supporting Mophun at all.. not that i care if it does or not. Java games are much better for the price - usually free.
That first ebay link is obviously to some idiot who is trying to con people into thinking he has a S700. Its obvious to anyone who knows a little about phones that its a scam. For a start, hes used Cebit pictures, the phone in the picture is a prototype with its lack of button icons, he says its launched next month (i dont see how when SE say the phone is only about 60% complete), when really its not out until the end of the year, and hes got the specs wrong.. interchangable covers on the S700 ?  no !
Anyone who bids for a URL to a scam site like the guy in the second link deserves to lose their money for being stupid. Common sense should tell you its a scam, yet i forget, some people have no common sense.

Yeah, Jezzaj and etaab, you pretty much confirmed what I thought in the first place. Even though some PEOPLE(insert swearword) will sell these things way ahead of schedule, if its too good to be true it probably isn't.
As for the (insert swearword) that paid 105 pounds for a URL, he ought to read the full advert before he spends his cash.
I'm happy to wait until the end of the year for such a quality phone as the S700, I'm sure it's not as chunky as is rumored. The specs on this site say its a bit thicker than my T610, and eveeer soooo slightly wider and longer.That's not going to put me off. |

Its not as big as a P900, which i thought was small for such an advanced phone so theres nothing wrong with the size.

conserning the chunkyness, in march i draw some 3d drawings of both s700 and 6600... s700 looks big, but actually, its smaller than 6600... anyway the s700 bit heavier, but theres always compromises; do you want "built quality that lasts for the army" , or "plastic toys wich are so fragile you wan´t let your children play with them"  |

very nice vid indeed although and I don't mean to jump to conclusion but seeing that the lil girl is asian and that it's in a playground it's fair to say this was not a prototype?? What i'm trying to get at is that the only two known prototypes were at Cebit and only one of them could do video and even then it was so buggy it wouldn't hold for too long. I know this cause Iw as acutally there and saw it.
In conclusion part of me thinks that vid may have been taken by the SO505i (it's japanese counterpart) that has been out for a while ont he market. I say that because the phones are similar (not the same) people may be taking what the SO505i does as a model for what the S700 may do.
I may be totally wrong, but i can say this if indeed it's a S700 prototype that took that vid....gimme gimme gimme lol
can't wait till we have chips implanted in our brains and the size issue goes back to being something else. |
