I chatted online with mobicity australia, they said that if i sent the phone back to australia in event of a failure, the warranty would be honored there. Anyone know if this is true? Price before shipping is like $685 (16gb, that's enough for me).
I saw an ebay seller that claimed he had 2 with the warranty and was only keeping one, so that's how i came up with mobicity as a dealer.

Does it matter what country your n9 was meant for if i plan on using it here in the US?

How about warranty at mobilecityonline.com in the US, warranty?

I really want this phone, but am worried about having a $700 paper weight.

Thanks,
Joe
