You are not going to get a P800 for ages (christmas if you're lucky but probably Jan 2003) If you want a flashly phone go for the Nokia 7650 camera phone jobbie. A bit fiddly to use but bound to beat your mate on one-up-manship
Saying that it is only worth buying if you are going to use the other features i.e. camera, mobile internet, GPRS connection, downloadable java games etc .

As Devil's Refugee says go for the 7210 lovey phone. Didn't know it was out so soon

What do you want to do with it? Besides making / receiving calls.

Sony Ericsson gets my vote.

Motorola V70, looks like no other phone. Why be a lemming I've been asked a few times in the pub what it was. Quite a good conversation piece.

Cheers

Question

7650 - Does it vibrate? Is it usable as a PDA - no touch screen and limited support.

P800 - I really want one of these and probably on orange - is it really going to be next year before I can get one?

Yeah they gave me some choices of free ones, forgot to bring the list home to check but there was Nokia 3410 and 3510, a Panasonic, a Sony and something else, p1ssed of with myself as I was going to get all the specs, dont really want to throw loads of cash at it as I think the multi function ones (camera, MP3, Java, Games etc) are in their infancy and within the next few years there will be an absolute killer phone that does it all and integrates it really well, plenty of memory would help and with all the new technology coming about its going to happen, in the meantime, freebie phones.

Got my fingers burnt buying a Nokia 7110 when it first came out and then sold it for forty quid !

Some markets will get the P800 just before Christmas and it will be available around the world in Jan 2003.
Look unlikely you'll get one for a bit. I was meant to get my work one last month
