I'm looking for a phone to replace my T610, and am seriously considering the K750. Can anyone verify that this phone will work with Tmobile in the US?

I have to buy this from a vendor like plemix.com, which seems a little sketchy. Is the w800 worth the $100 more that it cost on the SE website? I hope not because I really like the looks of the K750 better.

Yes, it will work. I have the k750 and love it. While the w800 may have a better media player and airplane mode, i diddn't think it was worth the extra money. I prefer the black version more. Once i did the recent firmware update, my signal even improved. (i can get signal in areas i couldn't before. Not even my nokia got signal. My work buildings where built like bunkers. Nothing can get through those walls.. )

I got mine in person though. Diddn't order it online. I live close enough to chicago where i can do that though.

good luck! Hope all goes well!

Where did you find your K750 local? I'm in Portland, OR and would go get one straight away if I could find it around here.

I ordered a W800 from the SE website tonight, but I suppose I could cancel the order.

I got mine in the north side of the city. Popular electronics. Im not aware of any places in your area. Sorry!

They are selling the k750i for $389.99 on their website.

and the w800 for $624.99 (Ouch!!!)

Trust me, it isn't worth the $235.00 for the w800. It isn't that much better. (My personal opinion)
