O2 and HTC I'd imagine
on another note.... I hope to hell its not the same price as the original XDA was when it first came out.
I dont care what anyone says... nothing of that spec is worth £500 !!!!
<hopes O2 are reading>
If they released it for what the XDA is selling for (£300 w/ contract?) then I'd definetly go for it but not much above...
I wonder how much they will sell the XDA for when the XDAII comes out?
I hope they will sell olso for outsite ... like Italy.
...and unlooked device... cause if else, we must discover how
to unlook the XDA II like first XDA.
Denis
stop selling
I bet that they stop selling the xda original. After all What extra revenue can they get from it? The new XDA II will have MMS because of the integrated camera. This is what sll the providers want. They make money from sms, gprs, mms, voice etc. That is what they are really after.
Wait and see what package they get together. £50 p/m. inclusive minutes, data, sms, mms etc... This is how they make their money...

a phone where the company sells it cheaper along with a subscription are almost certain to be simlocked
I'm quite happy to stick with their contract for a year if it means I'm getting 200 notes off the phone lol :lol:

Yeah thats 6-700 pounds UK.
Trouble is... they probably will sell it for that price with a contract on top of that !!!
Bummer - coz I'm really enjoying my XDA at the moment (got it for 150 pounds second hand) and would love the extra power. Have thought aboput going for a Toshiba e750 and a bluetooth phone - bummer on the pockets... but what else to do eh...
We'll have to sit tight and wait I guess....
What are the chances of being able to buy the base unit from HTC (without paying for the software) and *ahem* flash it with an XDA-developers ROM - or has that never been an option ??

The XDA have not yet entry in Italy ...
I'm curious if the XDA II will be disponible to buy in Italy ... else i'll must buy another time from O2 UK.
Who will buy form me ???

i think i will wait until they reduce the price of the xda. at least i won't be a beta tester :wink:
regarding your question, HTC doesn't sell units to end customers. you'll only get original unflashed units, if you buy a few thousand pieces and put your own logo on it :wink:
The thing is that o2 had an agreement with the manufacturer to have some exclusivity in UK and possibly Germany for the original XDA. This is why T-Mobile have not been able to sell the MDA in UK for last two years. When there is no competition, o2 can afford to charge 300 pound +
However, the xdaII will have competition with the MDAII, the same device, but T-Mobile have got around the exclusivity issue. Hence the prices will reflect competition.
Found today an article in the internet professionell magazine. They are writing, that the XDA II will have a price of 399 Euro and will be released about one month before the mda II will do.
But they also write, that the mda II will be released at the end of october.
Question is just in which year.... :lol:

u should be able to get it end of the month in europe, the devices should be released in asia by the end of the year if everything goes smoothly, i believe HTC should have released it in europe by then
I sent several mails to Expansys UK and they told me:
Dear Sir,
The handset Only Price: £449.95 (382.94 exc.)
Shipping costs 13.95 ukp. We will accept CC or bank transfer as the payment method.

Now my question is; I'm not a Brithish citizen, so I think I have not pay for a tax, I'm right?
They still inform me DUE november 23th. Is that right? just wait for a while.

any of your portugal shop sell trinity with italian language?
selling for sgd1298 about euro650 over here in Singapore
The Portuguese Web pages that I saw, offer the device in English.
So in moment, no Italian or other language. Hope the Trinity will sale in hole Europe at the end of next week or in two weeks. And of course, you can buy it in your native language.

If they ship to Spain you will have to pay UK VAT. Both the UK and Spain are part of the European Union.

You might indeed get a good deal, since for export the 16% German VAT is deducted, but of course you pay shipping and Singapore VAT. During my Asian travels for the last two years I noticed that prices in Germany are much better than in Asia, wonder why - these boys toys are made in your backyard
Unfortunately this respected online shop of a large trader only sells within Europe, at 501,12 Euro incl. VAT: http://www.handyattacke.de/cgi/websale6.cgi?shopid=etronixx&subshopid=attacke
But even Amazon Germany is not far behind, at 519 euros: http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000JWEAL4/idealode-21/ref=nosim
My local shop promised to match their price, in case I buy this baby...
I made a cancellaton, why? simple, I ordered last saturday and today I don't have the device. I made a call phone to Portugal and they told me the device is in Portugal yet. So, tomorrow I'll make a trip and at the end of the week end and international trip for long term.
Bye, bye Trinity.!!!! I'm so furious.
>lucas0511 - hehehe don't understand german at all so will give the website a pass thanks anyway!!! but although the price is quite a figure in my country i can have a gurantee in which i would not have if i import from overseas, if the set gets damaged along the way to Singapore it will be a major headache for me already hahaha so will stick to buying the set in SIngapore instead!!!
Where to buy the Trinity in the UK
Hi Guys just to let you know that I popped into Inkino in Central London and they have the whole HTC range. Picked up the Trinity. Good thing is that I was able to try it out and get a feel for the unit. Something that the web experience lacks! What also amazed me was that the also keep the Dell x51v and the Fujitsu Siemens n560 and T830. Thought that I would would just mention this as I thought that these units were only available for purchase on the web. Inkino are at www.inkino.co.uk and their store address is 243 Tottenham Court Road, London, W1T 7QS. What also is useful is that they have a Russian speaker (useful for me!) Their other staff include fluent Chinese and Spanish speakers. I have become a fan of shopping in a shop again! Hope this is useful for anyone struggling to find the Trinity as I know some online sellers had run out of stock.
Other than ebay, where can I get an unlocked hero? I know there's a site called 'puremobile' or 'purephones' or something... there was a site that I was on yesterday that had unlocked Hero's for $520 which is a perfect price but I can't seem to remember where that was.
LOL they have them on ebay for around 400 or even less if your lucky.
Mind pasting some links? Because I'm looking on EBay and all I see is $550 and up right now.
Have you tried Handtec? i bought my HD from there, dunno if they have a US Site tho
Hmm... I'm not sure if they will ship to the states... Any others?
Puremobile - Canadian retailer
Negri Electronics - I got mine from here. It was already unlocked (the Telus version), so I didn't have to pony up for an unlock code. Ships from Wisconsin
i Would check out play.com or similar sites, they sell unlocked (simfree) handsets , i would avoid ebay or any sites like that
Hello just registered
I am exactly looking for same thing.Please someone help me I will buy from US.
What i came accross was ;
http://www.integrontech.com/HTC-Hero-Unlocked-QuadBand-White-p/htc-hero-wht.htm
499 bucks.
But is this site safe ? And i read something like this about them ? But i guess this problem can be solved with ROM update right ?
DO NOT BUY FORM THIS COMPANY. i bought a htc hero, it came in quickly but could only be set up in enlish with three asian countries, no possiblities to be set up in USA or any other country. Once you set up english in either Malaysian, Cambodia, or Indonesia then you get english key board but still has asian symbols so you don't to use full effect of keypad. Also it does not have andriod market or any upgrade programs. i tried to call the company, no answer, then i sent them 8 yes 8 emails asking them to contact me and not one single reply so now my return deadline has passed. i contacted better business beruea and if i don't hear from them soon i will contact them via my brother who lucky for me works FBI in the southern florida district and has police friends to get something moving on this scam. they robbed me of 499.00 dollars and i am not happy. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY AND AMAZON SHOULD BE ASHAMED TO USE THEM.

Expansys in the UK are a top notch company.
www.importgsm.com is another got mine from them unlocked.
Mod edit: eBay link removed for breach of the forum rules.
..but, am uncertain about the "validity" of this online shop.
Anyone have experience with this merchent?
http://www.cellgsmphones.com/conten...omnia_7_16gb_unlocked_gsm_phone_preorder.html
there is no 16 giga version for the omnia7
Thats wrong. There is such a version - for example in Germany.
If this site got the 16GB Version is a different matter tough.
These shops have the 16GB Versions http://geizhals.at/eu/a582829.html
watch out for the German T-Mobile Branded Omnia 7. It's not released right now, we have to wait 2-3 weeks.
Not 2-3 weeks. I just got an email that the place where I bought it will send it to me on Friday.
Most sites on the Internet says 16th or 18th though.
Where did you buy it, the most shops i asked about the 16GB version said 2-3 weeks.
I bought it with a contract on an ebay store.
I guess thats not what you are looking for.
But on amazon.de there are for example a few shops with a delivery on 18th.
If you search on google you will see the other stores with 16th (I have doubts that they really get it delivered by then, but thats what they say)
Anyone found one outside of Germany? Also, are the German ones unlocked and usable abroad?
Starting to get tired of waiting for the Dell Venue Pro.
A t-mobile phone is a t-mobile phone as far as i know. You can buy it from the link i posted earlier this morning sim free from deutsche telekom *aka t-mobile*
***posted this earlier****
It's with deutsche telekom you can get the 16gb version.
Found the link.

ohne vertrag - without contract = 609.95€
"Someone Phone them this morning on 0800 33 55222 *german phone code 49* and see where they'll send it, i'm guessing anywhere if you pay for it"
T-Mobile US and UK are not compatible so I need to be sure there's no issue between Germany and UK as that would be a waste of my money .

I travel europe and get no issues apart from roaming charges , i am in live chat with them now, it's worth a laugh later, my bad german 5 min, then he asks "do i speak english...fu**ing classic*
What I meant was... If it's locked to T-Mobile DE, would it be ok with T-Mobile UK.
On a side note I wasn't expecting such a high price, maybe 100€ less...

Yeah maybe compared to the 8GB but the PAYG HD7 is only £380 and also 16GB, even if you pay to unlock it you won't go above £400 .
I might have to wait for the Dell Venue Pro afterall and upgrade the SD card.

But ya don't get the fastest, brightest unit atm lol, it's personal taste, i love HTC, i have shares in them lol the better they do, the richer i get
I've had a HTC from the MDA pro, TyTnII, Touch Pro 2, HD2, and now the Samsung, Why... put two next to each other When HTC front the cash and jump Samsung again with a new model back i go
I've got the German Omnia and it is definitely not locked to T-Mobile, because otherwise I wouldn't be able to use it with o2
The phone has no hardware branding but software branding with some uninstallable software and a customized search within IE (instead of Bing you get a Google based Telekom search). The biggest problem so far is that the MMS settings are locked to T-Mobile and are not customizable, so I can't sent or receive MMS (for me, it's no big deal, but for some it is...).
Furthermore, you can get the phone from other stores as well: Geizhals (local price search) has an overview of several shops that have the phone and are also cheaper than T-Mobile. The shop with the lowest price (handyattacke.de) also mentions that it might be possible to ship to other countries, but you have to ask them ("Lieferung in weitere Länder auf Anfrage."). Might be worth a try

LOL! Thats pretty funny... No offense, but let me guess, your german was coming from google translate or something like that? At least you´ve tried it!
Was today in a T-Mobile Shop in Germany and was asking the guy there about the Omnia 7. He confirmed me that all the T-Mobile branded Omnia 7 which are sold in Germany have 16GB memory and are not locked... That means you just have to find a Online Shop in Germany who send it to Europe to get a 16GB one. The only things you have to accept are the mms problem, startscreen from T-mobile for 2 seconds and the T-mobile Search. But Im sure with the time somebody here solve that problems...
Hey people,
An uncle is coming down from US to India (my current country) and I plan to buy the Omnia 7.
Should I ask him to buy one for me...but again, will I have to unlock it???
Does it come carrier specific like the iPhone?
Do I have to "Unlock" it?
Or should I just ask him to get the phone and pop in my SIM card from India?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I'm pretty sure the Omnia 7 isn't sold in the US. They have the Focus instead.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Yes, it's not sold in the US or Canada. But he can order one from ExpanSys (who gets them from Europe).
I picked a few up from Canada before I headed to Saudi Arabia. Work like a charm. Just gotta remember there's tax, warranty, customs, shipping. Not much profit made for reselling them Manuals also came in french, but that's not a big deal if you know how to use these things.

As Peew971 said: Omnia 7 isn't sold in USA by default, and ExpanSys actually have a very high prices, I got mine from Australia, factory unlocked and shipped to Libya (cost me about 840$ at that time, with Screen Protector + Case + Shipping Insurance), I've checked the website now (becextech.com.au) and it is priced at 699 AUD$ (= 687 US$) without shipping costs.
