the official line by most nokia dealers is in january next year, but the phone is already out in taiwan, hk, russia etc.

based on comments in engadget, the price in hk was around us$500, making it around 1.8k.

well. im waiting for the huge screen + wifi actually. Malas wanna go bring my lappie out all the time tongue.gif

ok i got my hands on it (again), this time in pyramid. Bit better than last time, very smooth, but the OS needs to be refined just a tad bit more. More responsive than a omnia imo. Signed up for the pre order! thumbup.gif

Not demm slow la. I would say S60 type of slow.  tongue.gif But i think current s60 users would be at home with the interface. Itouch (NOT Iphone!) is snappier, but it could be the "fluid" interface giving the feel good factor while the thing loads. Just like what Microsoft did with Vista. All pretty graphics just to mask longer loading speeds.

Just head over to any Nokia store to play with the phone la. Im sure they have it in most shopping complexes edi.

yea but still faster than the usual s60 slow. more like somewhere in between s60-s40 kinda thing.

Wrote a pretty long review today on a review unit I got for the past 2 weeks.

In short - very good and polished UI, awesome speakers, nice browser, but lackluster camera.

article (with a video) at http://kyspeaks.com/2008/12/15/ky-review-n...00-touch-screen

I really like the phone though, was experiencing withdrawal symptoms when I gave it back.

Cheers!

my guess is that it'll range from rm1400-rm1900, based on the rumours that singapore will be releasing @ 565 SGD and the HK release at 3988 HKD.

Personally i think rm1600.
