Had a chat with a manager from Telstra network (aus largest network) today.....
Any way, Telstra are, in the near future, only going to be offering hsdpa handsets.... we got on the topic of n95/hsdpa...... that led to a comment by him saying, nokia have not got much coming in to us this year, he says they have a hsdpa phone coming out july'ish, then after that they wont be releasing another one until either very late this year, or early next year.... He says the network is expecting devices to come mostly from Samsung,  and Motorola....
any one know if this is the case, nokia only have n95, and one more hsdpa phone to come for this year?
ps before you start saying where is hsdpa phones, there are going to be a few on the market this year, keep this topic to nokia hsdpa please

i would be surprised if this is true only having one more hsdpa from nokia......
i will try find out first, but that phone u posted is most likely the one he talks about, it looks like a mainstream phone, sort of like 6233, so something most networks would get......

well i had my doubts when he mentioned this....
he manages a store though, not actually a high up manager, but still they (store managers) have a good idea of whats coming, the standard employees would not. i know many people dont belive store employees so i thought id mention it 
we'll see what happens....

i think the guy meant a mass market/main stream market phone.... E90 is NOT mass market..... well its not mass market unless for some reason it its number one seller, but communicator is always for a select few...... not the majority..

afaik, Telstra are the only network offering hsdpa phones in Australia....
He did say that Nokia only had one more hsdpa handset coming in july'ish (excluding e90) , and that was all they were getting because of what Nokia is offering, only the one phone..... trust me, if nokia has more than one mass market phone coming, Telstra WILL get it.... their entire range is already made up mostly of hsdpa phones (NextG range), and very soon thats all they will offer, hsdpa phones, so the more options they get, they more they will stock... |

yeah, thats right
i think ( hope ) nokia will release some new ones with hsdpa and according the fact, that the n and e series are very succesfull and next to it hsdpa will be offered as a standard now a days, i dont think nokia would miss this chance to increase their hsdpa offers

Well Nokia just announced the N82 which is due Q3/Q4 and i would be very surprised if any of their new smart phone devices don't come with HSDPA.
But to be honest i really don't care any more as long as devices are released that i like i couldn't care less who makes them and i really am fed up now of all this constant bickering on the forum and if doesn't stop that's it I'm off to let the children play all by them selves.

I thought this was quite a civilised thread Marc, I have seen/dealt with more fanboy crap than you have had hot dinners in my time, anyway your always welcome over at ours.
Totally off topic however i just ordered an E65 after guys like you and Boba have been giving the E-series such good press!!.
