SonyEricsson support has just answered to my mail
The P800 will be released during February at the crazy price : 1000 Euros !!!

The question is : Why it is so expensive in France ?
Compare to Italy or nordics countries...

here is a copy a the mail :

I was ready to spend 850 € at max. For this price i prefer to buy an ipaq (a real pda) and to keep my 8310 (a real gsm).
What SE thinks ? We're gonna buy this phone a this price ? F**k them.

maybe in Portugal the price will be the same...

well at least i'm right on one thing - if p800 costs 1000 €, t68i IS the best phone in the world (bought it attached for 305 € + SIM with 45 €)

funny about the price desproportion in the EU, though
doesn't happen often, i think...

but cheer up "mes cheres amis", maybe the price will go down when the phone is sold attached to a french service provider, non?

don't tell the guys at SE to do dirty stuff to themselves - their phones ROCK

maybe the french SE guys should be blamed i don't know who determines the prices do u?

here in Holland the VAT is 19% also... but the price would be between the 750 euro's and 800 euro's...

I don't think SE France is correct in this case...

Here in Italy VAT is 20 %, and the P800 is sold at a street price of 799 €, branded by Telecom Italia Mobile, in bundle with ten euros of services and phone traffic.
I bought mine on December, 31st.

Now, here in Italy, the P800 is still in short supply, and is only available (very few pieces) through TIM shops, mostly in northern Italy.

Maybe other companies will have their branded P800 in early February, and "brand free" SE P800 will be available even later, and at a higher price than the TIM branded ones.
Just my two cents...

I bought my P800 last week in Milan,Italy for €799 in a TIM Store
it was branded, but I could take the brand off very easy with
alkohol.
So now I got a non branded P800.

I loved it and I'll never give it away.
It's the best I've ever had.
