For reason only of curiosity, I'm still looking for a good price for this overpriced piece of basic function alleged phone-art in unbranded form but for some reason it seems to be holiding its value, presumably due to demand from people who don't know better

I actually think the Gold D&G V3i is heaps better value, given its limited production, and so am now more seriously looking for one of these

but, I too will probably succumb to my curiosity for this 8800 if the price is right... and then the men in white coats will be coming to carry me away, ha ha he hee to the funny farm where... (etc etc)

well anyway, best price I know right now is on the O2 site for £229.99 on 12 month £19 contract. when you access via the quidco link you earn £35 for the transaction making total purchase price £422.99 and at least O2 don't brand too much. It was a bit cheaper until recently at the O2 site but I guess O2 have also realised the demand for this and unfortunately quidco don't give cash back for the O2 student site which would make it even cheaper

on a 12 month contract @ £35 thats still 420 so not much difference from my suggestion and no hassle whatsoever

doesn't sound that great really, unless you want all those minutes.

I just had 180 minutes carried over from November to December on my vodafone contract as I just don't seem able to use them quick enough!

Well the way it was i was originally purchasing a N70 @ 69.99 plus contract, Then they made issues and said we can give the D600 for free then were not able to produce that either...

So 3 weeks later was able to get the 8800 and also 2 months compensationon line rental... I personally never thought about getting the 8800... until this came about and yes I will be able to use the minutes... not sure about the tx though

So i feel its a decent deal... with everything i require for my use.

To be honest.... ive changed phones recently quite a bit.... the best of them to be K750i or W800i. The 8800 looks the part apart from that there isnt much init.

Cheers
ENJOY

Why do you want to get a 8800? It's the biggest overpriced heap of crap I've ever seen.
