I phoned the CPW and the guy said they had no idea, but he hoped it would be out early March, so late March must also be a guess. I reckon they don't know anything more than us. I hope.

I'm still hoping on a 24th Feb release now!

Like i've said many times before...

We hope Feb, but we can only tell people what we are told by SE and the basic fact is that they themselves do not know, they just give expected month, not even date and nothing, i repeat NOTHING is ever confirmed and definate in this industry!!!

The company also tries to under promise and over deliver so saying March is trying to better what we say.

Hi,

Well, SE Eshop is still saying 24th Feb for the Sim free version. I said I'd heard rumours that the first shipment would be the 17th and Emma at Eshop said they hoped so too, but 24th would be the official date. Sounds like they all want one too!!

I reckon that the providers will get the phones out later than that date as they will need to alter the phones slightly with startup logos etc.

Oh and I was thinking about getting an import but those phones will not have been tested on UK networks so that could be why a few people are having some issues with lockups etc.

You have to be kidding right, this is the same company that has missed release date, after date after date after date...

I really don't understand why the UK people consume unnecessary calories over P800 not being available until...who cares!
Buy it from U.A.E - it's available from www.uaemall.net and they have tons of them.
You'll get it with an international warranty, commercial release, 16MB mem stick, desktop charger, stereo headset, the works!
Unless you want to buy it with the contract, there's really very little point in waiting...P800 is stable, fast and simply the best gadget money can buy today!
