> P800 successor
Bookmark topic
Do you guys think that the successor will be released in the next 2-3 months???
I am thinking of buying P800 but if there will be a better version soon, I'd wait, cuz I don't want to waste so much money...

@loobian... the P800 isn't for everybody. It's a very specialized device. I see it as a phone/PDA hybrid for users who need SOME PDA functionality. For those who maximize their PDAs (these are the people who can slow down the new NX70 or NZ90 Clies) the P800 will be too limiting for them.
I suggest you try it out first in a shop to see if you really like it, and really need it.
I'm very happy with my P800...but when the new version comes out, I'll upgrade to that one as well... so you see, it really depends on YOUR needs.

Hi!
I know exactly what P800 offers... I have read a lot of reviews for it, I have worked with it (in the shop), I visit esato 10 times a day, so I am in touch with what happens...
I just would like to have the better version (if there is going to be one)!
The problem is that once I buy P800 I will most probably not be able to sell it so I won't be able to get the successor...
So- any idea when the successor is comming? (at least- will it be in the next 3 months?)
Thanks!

No. It won't be out in 3months. Even prototypes are not relased yet. I am not even mentioning the developer prototypes. It might be on the market in 4,5months but not earlier. Best Regards! Peter

Come on jack00.... It is the same phone....This has been discussed many many times. The p800/802 is the same device except the second is for the Asian market.

From a marketing point of view, SE would be doing themselves a disfavour if they release a direct successor before the shelf life of the P800 is up. They will hold back the release until the can milk the maximum profit or shelf life of the P800. They need to cover all the capital they invested into the r&d and manufacturing of the P800. Unless hey are adopting Nokia's multiple release strategy, which means the new model will still be inferior to the P800 in at least some way. If not, I think we will hold the P800 for at least 9 months comfortably.

And hey guys, releasing such rumours would instigate potential buyers of the P800 to hold off their purchases (esp at this stage even before the phone is on global release) for what may take months to happen. This will reduce SE's revenue and this can't be too healthy for SE in the end. These are secrets for a reason, and if you want SE to keep producing good stuff, you might want to repect their decisions to keep these secret and honour your part in the secret.
