dafman: That's a pretty steep price, considering the S3 can be bought for $799 at the moment. At USD $349, I would have expected it to land here at around $499 - not $699. Early pricing - I'd expect it to drop once it's scarcity factor is overcome.
Ahh, but that's without any markup!
Fair point, but will it be available here via the Play Store at some point in the near future?
Nope, we're far too small for google to both worrying about. (Since they'd have to handle GST, warranty returns, complying with the various NZ consumer law, etc.

I called up my local store who said they don't have in stock and nobody does, its online only. Not sure if its true though as I'm in Whakatane so we probably wouldn't be the first store on the list to get the actual phone.

I managed to get one from the Warehouse online. I was actually in the Monday morning meeting at 10 am, by 10:06 am half had sold, so I made up some excuse and ran back to my desk to order one.
Looking forward to having one of these in my hands this week, quite happy to pay the premium for the NZ warranty etc.
They seem to be adding more stock once it runs (I've seen "Sold Out" twice now and then the stock bar magically refills) so at the moment it's not too late yet.
