As long as it's unlocked and quad band you should be ok. You'll have to get another charger tho'.

the customs will push up that price..

RE: mobile phone / cell phone - bhara - 10-10-09

fair do's... if you got an old contract thats cheap then it makes more sense to do that, rather than get tied into a new one. will work out roughly the same, over 12 months, but if you keep the phone longer you will start saving

RE: mobile phone / cell phone - bhara - 10-10-09

nar lol
ill keep it for a month or two and sell it
that way i wont loose out much lol

and yh 12 months it would work out the same but contracts would be 18/24 months

---

RE: mobile phone / cell phone - pukkabruv - 10-10-09

thats propa shit that they have stopped doing the 12 month conract, i got one last year, but they wernt happy me not having an 18 month one.... its mad the speed that the technology is moving at and the want you locked in for 2 years

I'm waiting impatiently for the N900 to be released here, want to get it on a new business contract... keep getting hounded by indian call centres every fortnight about upgrading my plan

as if you only keep a phone for a month or two?

---

RE: mobile phone / cell phone - bhara - 11-10-09

yh i do mate
then i sell it and buy a new one

---

RE: mobile phone / cell phone - pokey27 - 11-10-09

Sounds like alot of hassle just for 2months

---

RE: mobile phone / cell phone - steve-o - 11-10-09

lol man I've had the samy SE k800i for over 2 years now

is Nokia available to send internationally with amazon?
last time I tried to get a couple of adidas things from there it wouldnt allow me due to some international laws?
