@angel: DomainStandard had the same issue with Reltel's phone. The phone had all the markings of 'refurbished', and we knew that replacing it would only place another refurbished unit in our hands. We eventually abandoned the line.

For those who were discouraged by the N115k opening price of Sonyericsson's P1, don't despair. The price is crashing fast. Current price is N90K. I hope W960i will crash like this too when it is launched.

It isn't a question of being discouraged. SE is just not getting it right. Even after the price has stabilised, I can imagine - from precedence - that the P1i will still cost significantly more than say the E61i. It is partly that kind of absurdity that is killing SE.
SE used to provide good value for money. A few years back, you could get an Ericsson phone with an awesone feature list for the price of an over-priced and featureless Nokia. It was one reason why I loved Ericsson then. Now you have to pay through your nose for an SE than you do for an equally (or in some cases more) capable Nokia.
That, it is said, is how the cookie crumbles.

Congrats are in order to all members of the PNF family on finally breaching 8000 posts.
May the thread go from strength to strength. Me, I'm an occassionally lurker and love how the conversation has developed over the years from call chargers to wireless broadband access in Nigeria.

snoop! Glad to have you around anytime. Cheers!
@all: heard about Glo's new licence in Benin Republic? And of MTN Benin's suspension? I have full details on my blog' if interested.
The crazy part is that Glo is expected to launch services within the next fifty-something days!

Thanks for that explanation AYA. SE phones have been getting much more expensive of late while Nokias are more affordable. I guess that's why I never bought the k800i. When I can get a Nokia with better features at that price. It's only phones that have failed woefully that gets cheaper from SE.

Sad as it may seem, I have to agree with you guys on this SE issue, but you will agree with me that despite the initial high launch prices of SE phones, the price quickly settles into a more affordable range. I'm so addicted to
that its really very difficult to switch camp. I'm going to wait for the W960 to fall to the N40k range (which should happen sometime in March 2008) but if I get impatient, by December I might just try out this "Mystical and magical Nokia E61i" Its just the wide form factor that irks me.
I'm not a flip phone fan, otherwise I woulda been interested in the N76.
N95 doesn't look so hot anymore, and it ages really bad.
