the top of the phone is quite heavy yes.
a mineral glass can get scratched, trust me, some watches have the 2, their is no such thing and an unscratcheble screen, at least not for the global market.

Yeah its down for me too, I suspect somethings being updated.
As for the difference, realistically the K750i is to bridge the gap between the K750i and the K800i. Better camera and screen than the K750i, but same flash.
And from what I saw the T650i shouldn't realistically be much more than £220. Phones have, rather suprisingly, become much cheaper of later. I remember paying £250 for what was a top end of the mid range sector handset. Even now, the N95 is only worth a paltry £200, its suprising just how quickly technology goes cheap.
The K550i for example. Started off a good £40 more than the K750i, now their the same price, within a few months.
This means if I sell my W850i, and my W810i, I can have a nicer phone for not alot of cash 
My opinions on this forum are that of my own and not of the company I work for. |

read all the topics guys, MR is down because apple fans have been hacking the site for more then a week now. Eldar even set up a bounty of 10k to find those hackers.

Regarding the screen, SE call it scratch-resistant, not scratch proof! 
To be scratch-proof, it's have to be made from a diamond-based compound.....
.....and then there's be more people moaning about the cost of the handset! 
And with that in mind, as Masseur pointed out yesterday, X1387 has T650i blue for sale right now(with NO accessories, I might add) - for ~£275/$540 shipped(of course, you could easily get stung for VAT on that, whic then goes over £300).
I'll be stunned if any UK supplier will retail for less than that(let alone £220), X1387 is usually 20-25% lower than UK prices......
After all, Ben Duffy from SE told ShinyShiny months ago, that T650 would retail for about the same price as K800 was initially......which was £350.....

i can't find any topics regarding that? and what has apple fans has against eldar? cult, indeed. they might know their computers, but cellphones? noobs...
back to topic. indeed it says scratch-resistant, but one would assume that it would stand tougher around 5-10 times better than normal phone screens? are we talking about deep scratches here or those swirly superficial scratches? |

If I remember correctly, someone said earlier in this topic that carphone warehouse were going to be getting it first in the uk (according to a copy of the CPW catalogue they'd seen). The CPW website says "Expected: 23rd August 2007" and the guy I spoke to from my local store said this week too.

That info is correct from what I understand, one of my collegues managed to nab their brouchure a day early and it was plastered all over the front (still is from 17th onwards)
My opinions on this forum are that of my own and not of the company I work for. |

The CPW 17th August brochure does mention the T650i as one of its forthcoming "Red-hot pay monthly deals" on Page 6; the phone in question being free with an O2 £35/month (or greater) contract - no other network operator logos are shown next to the T650i description as is the case with many of the other phones in the brochure.
My main worry is that the T650i in the UK will be a O2 contract-only phone for the first few weeks, as is also currently the case with the Nokia 6120 classic (see Page 23 of the same CPW brochure; the Nokia website still lists it as "Coming soon" even though 3 UK has been offering it as an exclusive contract-only phone for the last few weeks), so anyone quickly wanting a SIM-free or PAYG T650i in the UK could be forced to import one. |

Although, bear in mind SE's own E-Shop is quoting this month too.....and they don't sell branded phones......

The CPW store I spoke to said all their T650s would be for new connections only...
