Still he is right. The price will not go under 450. They make a decision they stick with it. Sure it might be a division of SE but-I might sound like I am badmouthing my country and people but hell its true-Greeks here don't change minds often. They want to stick with 450 they will stick with 450. And I say its a mighty fine price. I mean take a look at some of these prices
Samsung Innov8- 650
Samsung Tocco- 466
Samsung Pixon- 427
LG Renoir- 389
Sony Ericsson- 465.

Everything is in an average of 430-470 except for the ludicrous Innov8 and the madly cheap Renoir. The N86 by Nokia is sure to sell for the same price or more here. If its not and the price is lower I will be shocked. I mean the N95 8GB is going for 480 and the N96 is at a crazy high of 615. SO if it goes anywhere lower then 450 or higher(which I doubt SE has given us fair treatment of late. I mean the C510 for 190 euros only? Damn thats a fine price for something so damn awesome. But that W705 price grr*shakes fist) I will be happy with that but I doubt it.

Here we have 2 prices for SE phones!
Official price and black market price
For exemple the W995 will not be available with the official warranty for 2 months so only the grey/black market from Dubai will be available for at least 650$ and then when the official one will be out it will be at 500$!
The non-warranty version then will have the price decreased to 400$...This is Lebanon!
I even suspect official SE distributors in Lebanon(CEPP) to bring and sell themself the non-warranty versions the first 2 months just to sell it at a maximum price...I hope SE will hear that!!

I'm from Denmark. If I buy a W995 in Germany, where it is a lot cheaper, are there any problems with that? Will it have Danish spelling and menus even though it's bought in Germany?
Mizzle or HxH:
How is the music quality compared to my W902? And is the screen bright and vivid?
And the finale question, did we ever find out whether it had Walkman 4.0 or just the old 3.0?

walkman v3 with theme background supported like W705, Just some kind of lovely one I think.

Overall better than W902, bigger screen brightness sharpness vivid,
for sound quality W995 is top rated and above every I ever heard.

Just IMO

@se_love

I regret to tell you INNOV8 in my region is under 275 euros here sim unlock, because of dust eater will be put in under screen and their sh!t batteries is two major factors and not fully-supported my writing language so far sucks.

I have no idea where you are getting your prices from for the other models youve listed, Greece must be extremely expensive to purchase mobile phones, over here (UK) the prices are:
Innovo 8 8GB: 423 euros/ £379
Samsung Tocco: 222euros/ £199
Samsung Pixon: 336 euros/ £299
LG renoir 312 euros/ £279

All the items ive listed are very reasonably priced, with very good features and good value for money. SE W995 on the other hand WILL be released at a price of 423 euros/ £380 placing it againts the Innovo 8 which (obviously) the W995 falls flat on in every front. Will it be a success though? Take the C905, Eldar thought not because of the ludacrisly high price, but over here it has been selling very well and been at number one selling phone on contracts for weeks on end, the C905 did so well that SE positon in the UK jumped from number 3 to number 1 surpassing Nokia and Samsung. So yes i think it will do well, but not that well because touch screens are in general more sought after, and the flashy touch inteface looks far more sleek than SE interface.

Yep the prices are pretty high but it is worth it. A bit. I think. I dunno. I mean even the PS3 is high priced. 400 euros for 80GB. And if you thought these prices were high....

And don't get me into the I-Phone which costs the same price for an X1. I am telling you this phone with the prices we get is a bargain. Hell if not its a steal! Anyway I love Greece. Just went downtown a couple of hours ago to one of the many Germanos(the place I go for phones always) where one of my friends got his hands on a Prototype. My god I was ready to run out of there with it. Damn amazing piece of hardware that thing is. Too bad he had to give it back by tomorrow otherwise I would be playing with it right now.

Im not too sure why its worth it, spending loads more on products which you could easily ship from the UK lol.

Again the Iphone and Xperia is cheaper here than Greece.
Iphone: 377euros
Xperia: 495euros
Again (lol) the PS3 is cheaper here as well
PS3: 331 euros

Well if its going to be 20 euros less then thats nothing but if it was say 40-50 euros less I would go for it. I usually don't get stuff from the UK if its cheaper unless its a game or something.
