    Ugh the hassle of it all ah i would rather pay extra for the sim free than give 3 my money and have the 3 symbol all over the phone with their sw ruining a perfectly great phone which has perfectly good software as it stands.

    That seems a bit steep when I could get the C902 for 30 euro's more...although I heard that has software issues...maybe I will just wait for the W995 (price dependent) and sure its nearly may.

    the sony ericsson w995 looks the business

    I understand its released in May in ireland but will it be out sooner on ebay?

    That is very steep from 02. I was told in a 3store it'd be out in two weeks for €179 only €30 more than the 595.

    Rip off Ireland, no other reason.

    The build quality of recent SE phones has been poor. I'd wait to hold one before I'd buy one at this point.
