According to SE customer service in Finland k790i is cancelled! They said that gsm operators weren't interested in edge phone while concentrating on umts. I wonder if anyone elsewhere can confirm the situation of k790i?! |

That's true. K790 will only be sold in countries not having 3G. In Finland and other countries with 3G, only K800 will be sold. |

Does that work the other way? Like the K800 won't be sold in the US?
I'm tired of the US, it sucks! Stupid EDGE, stupid 850 band, stupid Cingular! ....Sorry, I'm just a little pissed, my K750i won't work in my area.

@ikjadoon - Actually Cingular is ahead of the pack on 3g service - they are the only ones world wide who have deployed HSDPA, everyone else is still on UMTS moving towards HSDPA. Problem is, they chose a frequency for their service which is different than what was accepted in Europe, and SE has not released any 3G phones on that frequency. |

Well the K750 had a 1.8 inch 176x220 pixel screen, and the K800 has a 2 inch 240x320 pixel screen. The K800 will have a much finer image than the already fine K750 one. QVGA screens are top notch quality and produce a finer image then most destop LCD monitors. Only thing that beats the finness of QVGA is the 352x416 pixel screens from Nokia and the VGA screen from Sharp; TBH though, they are both power hungry screens.

Should have said, K800 is not HSDPA capable and hence only for non-HSDPA 3G markets. K790 is the one that will be sold in US (K800 is not listed on the SE US WEB). |

Actually, there is one mention (at the back and it's only the specs). I asked in store today and was told that we are in a cross-over period where the device is due this month but not until the end of the month so they don't want to advertise it as coming soon or in stock as they have done previously with other models which are subsequently delayed. Sounds like nonsense to me! |
