I noticed that one too. Maybe Vodafone will get it later, but then notice how the C905 is on there? It's not very accurate obviously. I have put the C905 in the "Not coming to NZ" section of the first post.

From speaking with SE NZ, I get the impression the phones are available for Telecom, Vodafone and 2Degrees to choose from but whether the option is taken up is a different matter. The networks probably get a couple of devices for testing and evaluation purposes and maybe a large corporate could twist their arms for a particular model if the features are unique, but otherwise we just have to wait, or buy from an importer.
Call/txt phones are endlessly popular and are mostly bought on price. Feature phones though are a limited market and just how many 5.0Mp camphones do Vodafone think they can shift per month? This limits the number of models that a network will support and unfortunately NZ is a small market, which is not inclined to spend much on phones/services and even less on mobile data. The exception of course is the iPhone which practically sells itself and is still gathering momentum.

Yeah I agree, and I got the same feeling after I read about your conversation with SE too.
Speaking of SE I have ordered myself a new phone. An SE U10i Aino from Expert Infotech.

Haha I wouldn't be so sure... Those sciPhones are pretty cheap (and nasty). I'm sure your C905 is better though... How is the C905 by the way?

God I'm lazy, its still broken. I really need to get round to fixing it or sending it back
Anyway satio is looking rather cheap at the moment, the £400 price some people have paid is about $870NZ. Much cheaper than iPhone!
