Just in case anybody else from Switzerland is attending this list... I've just called my service-center of choice, and I was, hm... let's say, "disappointed". They still don't have the slightest clue! And the price is estimated to be between 1300 and 1500 CHF (around 880 to 1050 US$!) That's insane! So, if you're going for one, however, check some online-dealers. I found one who'll sell it for 1100.-, keeping full warranty, and that's quite a saving!
I'm bugging 'em almost daily, and I'm quite sure I'll know quite early when they will get some...
So long, enjoy the holidays

Dam'it! I'm so nervous... And now, guess what! The swiss page (www.sonyericsson.com/ch) is unavailable, it seems... I sincerely hope they're updating because the phone comes to our cute little country. Wouldn't be the first time that we get something a bit earlier than others...  I keep praying. (Tho it looks like I'm the only cheese-eating, chocolate-fooding swiss cow-boy here... |

keep us posted...I live back and forth between Switzerland and Canada and assume Switzerland will get the P800 first. Maybe I'll get my relatives there to buy me one as a late "christmas gift" . |

Trust no one! Especially no one involved with 
I WANT THAT PHONE!!!! 
BTW, the shop I was talking about is www.myhandy.ch
They are VERY competent, VERY forthcoming and really nice, and after all: cheap.
I've bought some accessories for myT68 there, as well as a 6310i with accessories. Great price, great value. |

kewl, some Swiss guys here... chönntäd ja eigentli uf schwiizerdütsch schriibä, nid? 
but btt: The P800 will not hit the shelves before beginning of February 2003 in our beautiful little country... sorry mates! Got that info from a SE Product Manager.
And btw: I don't think myhandy.ch is that cheap... just checked the price for a MCA-25 and a HBH-30, and Mediamarkt is in both cases around CHF 30.- cheaper than myhandy.ch
CHeers,

@rog: désolé pour le schwitzerdütsch, je ne le parle pas
But did you see the P800 price on myHandy.ch? Approx. 1098 Chf! That is 300.- less than the price expected (I was told 1300-1500.- by a Phone House dealer). Okay, the phone isn't out yet, but it might prove interesting!

@rog
Well, you gotta go get the newsletter then...
But honestly: Do you really think MediaMarkt is cheap for anything? I haven't seen anything only nearly at a good price for quite a while. And so far, I've never been disappointed with myhandy. The price of 1090.- actually IS good, I guess. Even better since I'll get my P800 in January....
Und tschüss 
@doowap
I ordered mine this afternoon. Including shipping 1093.50. And: When they get it, the ask if you still want it, and you could still say no. (Just in case you find it cheaper in MediaMarkt *rofl*)
And: No, I'm not involved with myhandy in any way

Hi,
I write in french for the switzerland..... I'm tired...
Je trouve bizarre que des pays comme l'italie on déjà le P800, et nous il faut attendre jusqu'qu 20 Janvier.
Pourquoi ? Il n'y a aucun intéret.....
Avez-vous de meilleur nouvelle que moi ? (ECS, Mobilezone) |

Just got this from an Ericsson employee:
Danke für Ihre Anfrage. Das Sony Ericsson P800 ist zwar für Ende Januar 2003 angekündigt, trotzdem denke ich, dass es vermutlich Februar werden wird. Eine genaue Zeitangabe kann ich Ihnen leider nicht geben.
In english:
Thanks for your request. The Sony Ericsson P800 is announced for end of January 2003, but nonetheless I guess it'll be February in the end. I can't give you a precise date, sorry.
Not good, not good at all... |

@cow33
J'éspère vraiement, que ce truc arrive en janvier encore, mais... T'as sûrement lu ma dernière message. disent, qu'ils on lancé le P800 dans ces pays où ils ont des centre de services qui peuvent maintenir ce mobilophone. Mais à mon avis, ils n'ont seulement pas les langues pour les autres pays... Peut-être des problèmes avec allemand et français... Je ne sais vraiement pas...
En tout cas, c'est triste... |

@cow33: Je suis allé hier...
chez Mobilezone: Janvier-Février
chez Phone House: idem
chez Interdiscount: P800, jamais entendu?!
un ami vendeur de Natel m'a dit qu'il m'en procurerait un dès que possible, mais pas avant 2003...
Pas très réjouissant...
