Taken from the news release;

Nokia E72 Out now for pre-orders | £359

I've also checked the currency rate @ Bank Negara as at 7th October it is 5.4529

So lets do some math here.

£359 x 5.4529 = 1957.5911 doh.gif

It is roughly going to be RM 1958, and this price excludes tax, mark-ups etc.
Which I suspect the price is going to be <RM 2300 , most probably.

Let us all E72-lovers, keep our fingers crossed that the price wouldnt be as much as that.

Since reviews had also mentioned that this phone can be classified as the BlackBerry killer, I doubt that the price should be lesser than RM2k.

Somehow, dont put our hopes high just quite yet while we pray.

Hmm,i still cant believe that it is goin to be >2k+ cuz i remember the e71 is <2k so i thought they will maintain the pricing of the e71 to the e72 since also not much differences from both phones.

I also have the same thought just like u, as well as many others here.

Just that when I saw the pre-order price for the Nokia E72, I wouldnt wanna assume that the price would be around RM1600-1800 like E71 when it was first launched here in Malaysia. I wouldn't wanna be upset upon knowing, later, that the price for E72 is more than 1600-1800.

To play on the safe side, lets just take a higher value. If it is cheap, then we all untung lah. If it is around 2k++, then it is still around our budget & assumptions.

Shall we take it like that, if this phone is similar to this phone, lets hope for the N900 to be as the same price as N97, since there are not much differences between these 2 phones according to the specs.

Somehow, theres always something special for each Nokia phone.

Fingers crossed brothers, fingers crossed.

However,

There is also a good news.

The Nokia E72 are also available for pre-orders in the US (saw it on Amazon)

With the selling price of USD 469.

And the current rate as at Oct 8 according to Bank Negara,

Again, lets do the math.

USD 469 x 3.392 = RM 1590.848 (excluding tax,mark-ups,blabla)

With the downfall of the USD currency, (as we are aware, reported news had also said that the USD might be facing a major downfall for the upcoming weeks)

So, after few weeks crossing our fingers, let give them a rest for a while shall we. thumbup.gif

The dream of seeing the <RM2k price for an E72 becoming a reality is getting higher and higher.

Theres at least something for us to cheer about as for now.

Nokia says Q4, Q4 by definition is between the months of September till December.
They did not give a specific date, so jsut accept it as that.
So therefore you can anticipate it coming out between these 4 months.

Wow, I'd be really pissed if it's coming out in Dec here while it's released in US and UK in a few days. I'm stuck with my dying phone for so long just because I wanna wait for the E72. Hmmmmmm.
