Actually with some numbers ther could be three. Mobinil has 018 too now and there could be three people with the same number.
I also wonder if there'll auctions for some gold numers like 011 1111111 ?

I'll give u the answer guys. Who moves, will move with the wole dial including the prefix (either 010, 011, or 012). The dial is to be considered as consisting of 10 digits, not just 7. |

Now that doesn't really make sense. Mobily didn't do that in Saudi Arabia. It would be nice though.

Mobily didn't have to do that coz when it entered the market, Al Jawal had only 9 million subs, with a 9.999.999 dial range was readily available. Now Etisalat is entering the market in Egypt while both Mobinil & voda are about to reach the end of their 7 digit range (up to 9.999.999). The plan with the new 10-digit range of dials in Egypt could extend the dial ranges up to 99.999.999, so I guess now it makes sense |

mahora, you did see mobinil's ad saying 018 is now their's too. And why would they need to switch to a 8 digit system, which I do agree is better and they should've implemented from day one, inama t2ool eih ba2a.
Americany, I still don't understand how it can be ashta, I would say ishta or eshta. I also take it you're very happy with the W810.

Now something to vote on.
Are you ok with having i-mate in Egypt or would you prefer HTC to replace it as a brand?
Just in case you don't know QTek was just a brand HTC used among others to market their phones, i-mate on the other hand isn't although i-mate mainly relys on HTC products. I-mate is rumored to not use the HTC excaliber (S620) but is going with something else (JAC).

I like i-mate, I was actually going to get a JAMin instead of getting my K800i, but I just couldn't break the row of Sony Ericsson phones I had. Also, the only major thing the Jamin has over K800 is WiFi. I prefer the 3.2MP CS camera though:)

alibond you didn't really get the question.
The point is do you prefer imate or HTC. As a brand. Till now all imate phones are made by HTC, but Imate is rumored to be dropping the HTC S620 for a phone made by another company.

So do you prefer HTC and it making all its products. Or imate which is obviousely not going to rely on HTC for all its products anymore.

Another Egyptian. 
Sesing your post in the general section, I now know you mean the W800.
Personally I'd get the W800 or even better the W810. The only ything is I don't know the 3250's price. But I'd go with a  anyday over the 3250.

Thanks, well I went to a couple of stores and I found the Samsung D600 (2000 le), SE W810i (2660 le), Nokia 3250 (2200 le) and the Motorola roke e1 (1300 le) but I asked for the E2 they told me it didnt arrive yet. So which of them is the best and told tell me the SE....I want in the terms of abilities. I saw rightnow the Nokia 6233 what do you think of it and how much does it cost here in Egypt and which is better it or the Nokia 3250. What is the advantage of having a smart phone because I asked the people at Raya and they didnt give me a convincing answer. Thanks in advance. |

The advantages of having a smartphone are so many. You can install software tonnes of it and software can do useful things like auto keylock.
Basically if you don't know what a smartphone is then you don't need one. As for the 6233, I thought you asked prices? Either way the W810 is better except the screen. But for a music phone the W810 is better espesially since it comes with a better set of headphones and its camera is better.

Thanks really mustafabay for your reply. As for the Nokia 6233 I meant while replying in the forum yesterday night I saw it in website so I wondered if you knew its price. I've checked Raya website but they dont have even the phone in thier collection. I've checked the S60 website and took a better idea about smartphones but I dont know I think its an overrated feature I mean my brother owns the SE W550i and he can also download games and other stuff.......still I want to make my mind. |
