If faulty, we rely on the US warranty, which means posting it back, and having Nokia send it via a freight forwarder again.
Which when you consider the $400 saving from Mobicity price, should be OK to cover a few shipments back and forth ...

I have used PriceUSA at the beginning of this month for 700AUD and I am still waiting (but maybe because Amazon is always out of stock)...

the site isnt currently working for me, but i think you can get it from here for about 580 plus 40 shipping through a forwarder to australia. which seems to be about the best deal i can get. though i am unsure about their availability

can anyone tell me, if i order off this site, how long will it take to arrive, and are there any better deals/options for me? :D
I certainly would not be ordering from them. I placed a order with them on November 10 and had no sign of it ever being shipped. The ETA's keep getting pushed further back, in fact one of the warehouses is showing a ETA of March 2010!
I cancelled my order with them and ordered through another supplier last Tuesday (Ipmart), and they have already shipped my order.

We got him to get them via Amazon as that was the cheapest option at the time. (several months ago) I believe being based in NY, he gets slugged with some additional sales tax.

He is very good with warranties, which is fortunate as of the 4 units we got sent over, 1 had the dreaded reboot bug. (currently on its way back to amazon as we speak)

As for postage times, Id imagine if you ordered it today, you'd have it within a fortnight. Depending on availability at whatever online store you choose obviously.

Edit: Actually yeah I forgot about christmas looming... On second thoughts, dont expect it within a fortnight.. ;)
hey mate, how much did bonzer charge you to buy phones through him ?

i want him to buy it through newegg if possible.
