Smartphone from Amazon Germany?

As the title suggests , I thinking of buying this phone from Amazon.de ..

http://www.amazon.de/Samsung-Galaxy-Smartphone-AMOLED-Touchscreen-Android/dp/B005SYZ4SQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1320070855&sr=8-1

I contacted them but did not get anywhere due to the language barrier and the fact they are quite new to them , so my main question is will there be problems with network on language choice etc.? , anyone here ever had a similar experience ? My main reason is amazon.co.uk price are much higher .... been waiting for this device for a long time.

I also bought my optimus 7 from amazon.de (from a third party seller though) with no problems.

The listing states:

(Hinweis: Original deutsche Ware ohne Branding und SIM-Lock

Which translates as, Original German market product (i.e. it's not a grey import) no branding or sim-lock.

So if the listing is accurate you should have no problem in using it with any sim from any network. If it's not accurate you are then of course within your rights to to return the goods as not as described.

Even on samsung.de they don't mention in the specs what language options are available, you could try emailing Samsung in Germany if you want to be sure.

I also bought the LG Optimus 7 from Amazon.de and when it booted first you were given a list of all the major European languages from which to choose to use, I would imagine this would be the same but can't say 100%.
