I agree, i think the official campaign does not have to be synchronized with the availability of the product. When i bought my t68m October 2002, many shops told me that the t68m would not be released before January 2002... eventhough the t68m was in my pocket. The applications developed during the "codetocash" contest will (most probably) be available for download through the internet.

I posted that the P800 is due to be £499 UK WITH contract in the UK, but I was ridaculed and laughed at 4 weeks ago........I suppose the fact I work for Vodafone UK did not bother them, now that the price is published in the latest Carphone Warehouse Catalouge people might actually believe.

Like i said...i work for CPW...my info is from our SE account manager...see my previous posts on cost...consider this, an Ipaq costs around £500, all similar devices such as the Hanspring Treo or the XDA are roughly the same offline...the P800 will be too, and then like the other devices, subsidised by the networks on contract...£330...

I think Caspa is correct, the P800 will have to be priced similarly to competing products,

or they could put a crap metal cover on it, call it "vertu by sony ericsson" and sell it for thousands...

But when will we see it...

According to the German website www.telefon-treff.de one of the forum members received an email today indirectly from SE through a wholesaler stating that P800 will be in stores (in Germany at least) week 38 (2nd week of September). If so, they're keeping to their original release schedule!! Yipee, Christmas is soon here!

Also, check out www.semuser.com as they have just revised their name and forum to capture the imminent anslaught of P800 postings. Interesting info from one of the members as they have claimed that they've just bought a P800 through Vodaphone...
