scottjpalmer: Let me know what they say please? Also confirm the total absence of any Chinese characters on the keypad if you can please, I'm fussy like that!


They have stock ("a few") of the grey model. Apparently sourced from Singapore. The guy on the phone said he didn't think there were Chinese characters on the keypad but did not guarantee it!

I have no mule. And as the WAF in upgrading yet again is at an all time low, I'm picking the idea of flying to Aussie to get one is out of the question too! Might try einfo again unless another local supplier comes to the party. I'm fussy on the keypad too Scott.

Have been having a good go with mine over the weekend.

The keyboard is a little different to the E71, although quite a bit more tactile. The trackpad is AWESOME!! Navigating websites is so much easier. The Email client is fast and stable.

General speed of the device is blazingly fast even with the theme effects turned on. The camera is almost on par with the latest FW on an N95.

Loving more the more I use it.

Perfect upgrade for anyone going from any previous E Series devices IMO.

Brent is one giant step up from JohnR, working for the big N rather than the big V, so he didn't have to pay either

Had that feeling, thanks.

Had a play with one on Thursday. Supply (or lack there of) is my only real issue at this time.

Which colour have you guys ended up with?

I've been dealt the gold card... heh, actually not too bad, pretty bling.

I'm loving the music search by holding down the * key.
