Guys go straight to original unit either from Avaxx or Zitron. Price is now RM13xx-14xx. I understand some people 'hope' that by going AP, the price would be RM1xxx since AP is usually RM100-300 less expensive. It won't work here. Reason is as the original authorized set's price go lower, it'll eat into margin. The law of diminishing returns applies here. Think about it, the cost of bring imported phones in, the cost of providing 3rd party warranty services, and the cost of the phone itself. It'll compete with other AP phones too if they go too low.

So what happen is that this will discourage them from bringing in AP sets. At least the ones who are still holding to the existing stocks are bundling other freebies to make the deal seem better.

Anyway, my mom asked some handphone vendor dude, he told her that ori no 8GB card. I was scoffing my ass off the whole way.

Yea apparently AP set is more expensive than ORI, so that guys pricing is..different.

A few questions to you 5800 owners: Any problems with the build? Is there FM transmitter (hopeful) and can you ahem ahem garmin on this?

Thanks.

I dont own the phone (yet!), but there's no FM transmitter. Bit of a letdown, but not really a dealbreaker here.
