Thanks for the info, pal.
The Egyptian situation sure is strange: you guys don't seem to have much choices

In defiance of all logic, Deltech takes its move. First, the F500. It’s basically the same as the k500, in other words they’re killing their own products. I guess they’re only betting on customers’ ignorance and on the assumption that a customer is only looking for the cheapest. Second they must be real tired of the k500 not selling so they decided to simply kill its sales. Third, the F500 is originally intended for Vodafone network, how are they introducing it as an unlocked phone? The only thing that could have gotten them to sell it in Egypt is that they must have won the bid when Vodafone Europe decided to get rid of its stock of the F500, since it’s getting old in Europe by now. The F500 stock must have been on a really good sale
. I hope I’m missing something because I can’t see any sense in that move.
As for the K300, I judge by the F500 move that it must be priced at less than 1000 l.e. due to the difference of specs, which is still something very good. As for the k7, I guess it's final price will be 1500-1700 L.E., but its next fall in price will only happen in August, that's of course unless Deltech marketing geniuses surprise us with another unpredicted move of theirs

Yesterday I made a call to Delta Mohandseen and tried to get some info out of them. I tries to ask specifically about whether there was any difference between the f500 & the k500, the guy that replied told me that they both had the same specs. And when I asked about the difference in prices, he told me that it was an offer on the phone
.
I also asked about whether the phone was locked on voda network, he confirmed that it works on both Egyptian networks.
So the theory must be right. Deltech won the stock from voda Europe that must have been on a really good sale

Yes, but the F500 is white with blue. The pictures in the ads show a phone that is a bluish silver with blue, which is exactly how the K506 looks. Hey, if they don't know the difference why should they worry about customer actually knowing.
And check out the all new VODAFONE metro. I haven't seen the Tang metros for a while but I wonder how many are going to be vodafone red.

I tried to look for data on K506 on google, and almost all the sites turned out to be chinese! So they got the chinese stock right from the factory
Do you know the differences between the normal k500 and the K506? Are any options deleted?

Its on
www.sonyericsson.com In the global portfolio you'll see a K506i and c.
And where's that K550 SE? gsmarena.com already has a review of the CX75, so not much longer till it hits the market.

There's only the K506c, so the Deltech shippment must be chinese. Only the K508 has an i&c versions.

This actually makes it even more wierd. This means the phone is very unique, the only actual K506i in the world. K506 and 508 share the soft key and joystick design, but differ in numberpad. And it isn't really the F500 because that is white and blue. Wow we actually have the bragging rights of having a totally uniqe phone
