for me it only takes approximately a week to have mobiles repaired parallel imported

Nokia Hong Kong only takes 3-4 hours to fix mobiles and this goes the rest to Sony Ericsson,Samsung and motorola as well

I don't really need the extended warranty as I tend to change my mobile every year

I have never experienced a mobile that 3G doesnt work.Maybe the mobile isnt from a genuine source

I have had 7 mobiles and neither one of them had problems with 3G either than vodafone live but vodafone live doesnt worry me.I can get games online for free for my current Nokia N73

I'll never purchase a mobile thru vodafone nz thats for sure.It is so overprice

Buying straight from vodafone nz is a rip off but buying from someone like Dick Smith is way cheaper. I got mine for $999 Nokia N95. It was $600 off special which was like 1 month ago and they just put up the same special again. So can you buy a phone straight from Nokia Hong Kong's website?




Do whatever you want to do man.

Er, the Vodafone price is now $999, which is why Dick Smith has it at that price.

Well I got some good news - my phone got fixed. An outfit in Wellington does flashing.

No more mucking around with it now :)

Details please, who did you get to fix it and how much did it cost you?

Cheers!

The place is in James Smith Building (where Rebel Sport is). Its on the ground floor and is run by an Asian lady. They sell cellphone covers. Cost depends on model.
