    Just wondering if anyone knows any cheap places, in Dublin or online, where I can get my hands on one of these things? SIM free of course!

    Cheers

    Well the W800i has a 2 megapixel camera in it and more memory, 512MB I think.

    But theres no real difference between the W800i and the K750i, except for the obvious shell and a slight software change. So Im finding the K750i relatively cheap, but the W800i is going for far more.

    Example, Bonus Upgrade with O2 and the K750i costs €149. Same upgarde for the W800i? - €299!!! Twice the price for what is essentially the same phone.

    And its an idea for a gift, so just seeing how cheap I can get it for.

    AYe it's amazing how much of a premium they'll slap on for a snazzy orange cover and a Walkman logo :rolleyes:
    Only difference I know of is the inclusion of a 512mb mem stick, bigger onboard memory and the ability to run the mp3 player whilst the phone is turned off.

    SIM free on eBay seems to be about the £240stg mark...seen it on pixmania for €425...the must-have factor and the newness of the model combined with the fact that it's approaching crimbo are all reasons for the current high price...I'd say the price won't drop for a wee while yet...

    Yeah, thats what Im seeing as well alright.

    But I remember a website that used to sell sim free phones for a decent price. It was around the time the K700i was released. Only thing I can remember of the site was the pictures of all the phones on the site were "squished"! Anyone remember this site?!
