Hi to all, I just want to share with you my odisey to know more about these device, to know when and where to buy this device.
I from Spain, I visit many web page and try to contac serious sellers and all told me we have no idea when and where. We have some bad news about the end of november or earlier december.
Could you please tell me where I can buy a white device???
Hope this post help others to make a easy way to but it.
Thanks a lot.

i've contacted expansys UK n they quoted me 595 euros including shipping to asia, u can try to contact them maybe? but i suggest u wait til it launches in your country as purchasing via the internet u have to take risk

I bouth several devices in Expansys, but always in Spain. By the way, the UK Expansys and Spain Expansys, hope are almost the same, so hope I can buy it at the end of these month.

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.
Regards
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.

btw here in italy cheapest price is 630 euros!
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.

Cheapest HD2 in Germany?

Considering to buy a HD2 in the next time.. Can somebody tell me where to get it cheap in Germany? The cheapest i found is just 570 incl. shipping.. But i have read of 515 or sth....

http://geizhals.at/deutschland/a470265.html

the cheapest I found so far is 535,90€ on http://www.handy-navi.de/Handy-und-Smartphone/HTC/HTC-Touch-HD-2-anthrazit-T-Mobile::804.html
but I never ordered from handy-navy.de. So I don't know if the seller is trustable.

Just ordered mine from danto.de.. They seem to be serious as they have good ratings and an exact publishing date. However it costs 570 €... But i want to be sure when it comes to an expensive phone...

But it has also T-Mobile branding!

You can order @ expansys.de.
From now just 7 days delivery time. The distributor already has it in stock.
It's not the cheapest, but you can pay in more ways than in other stores, including bank transfer(!).
Update: The date just switched from +7 days to 17.11.2009

T-Mobile aren't branding this phone are they? I heard roumers they weren't

i could offer everyone who is interested the htc hd2 for a price of 600,-€ inclusive shipping costs. i work in a small company in regensburg/ratisbon, germany. we get the phones from one of the biggest german distributors and we have the possibility to ship devices - on advance payment - directly from distributor to costumer. so as soon as the device is available at the distributor, it will be sent to the costumer. distributor telled me at the phone, that the device is expected end of november, no exact date, though.
if anyone is interested in this possibility, or for further questions, you can contact me directly via pm.
---
this schould not be seen as a commercial offer since i am just a student working "400€-job"-wise in this company, this is an offer for you, if you like to buy from a smaller company with support and service, but get the device quick an not that expensive.
2 devices would make you pay 1180,-€ (590,- each) if you are interested.

If you're looking for the cheapest in Germany, I maintain a vendor list http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Leo/Vendors Its got pretty much all online licensed vendors listed and all comparative prices.
So far the Cheapest vendor shipping to Germany is based in Switzerland (Digitec.ch) and sells the phone for €504. They have the HD2 in English,German & Dutch keyboard layouts too
Keep an eye on the the vendor list though you might find it cheaper. Hope that helps
ps. the absolute cheapest is sold by BTC in Nederland for €469, not sure if they ship to Germany though.

But remember, you have to add customs fees on goods out of Switzerland.
Usually these are 19% VAT and fees for the customs procedure.
All in all, you're buying this one for about €620 and this is more expensive than buying in germany directly.

I'm fairly sure items from Switzerland to anywhere else in the EU are free from Customs. (even though Switzerland isn't completely part EU/EMU) I've had items sent to Ireland and Netherlands from Switzerland and not paid a cent in customs (maybe im lucky? ) But if not you definitely can get customs free HD2 from Netherlands. Algebeld ship to Germany (I think they might have a base there) and its only €524 from them. IF BTC-online ship it you could get it for €469
If you still want to buy from an exclusive German vendor though the cheapest there is TalkThisWay.de for €569 ....at least your not stuck in Norway they sell for almost €725 there.

Where to buy unlocked GSM Hero?

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.

Samsung Omnia 7 from USA to India?

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.
I hope I've helped you...

How to get a Nexus 4 in Italy?

As the title says,I would buy a Nexus 4,but I live in Italy and I don't know when it will be available in my county....
So,how can i take it from America(I'll save some euros paying it with dollars)?
If someone could send it to me i'll pay shipping cost and a little extra.....or there are any shops like amazon that can send it to me?

+1

I'm Italian too and the Nexus 4 will be buyable in the end of November and the first dais of dicember from Internet and shops as Media world..
Now the question is: how much will it cost? I read in countries those can't buy it from play store (Italy, Austria, Sweden, Netherlands and others) it will cost 550 euro in 16gb version! It's a theft!
Any information about this?

im from portugal and my country doenst support google play to buy nexus devices... if it cost 550, i know some people in france and will ask them to buy one and send for my for more like 10 euros

I'm looking for another way to buy the Nexus 4 because i've read about the price in Italy and I don't want to be robbed,I can ask to my uncle in Germany and he will send it to me,but buying it in America would be a better way because I won't annoy my uncle and I could save some euros(349$ for the phone+more or less 50$ of shipping cost=309 euros).So,someone know about a site where i can buy it?If not,who could send it to me from America?

Can buy from uk
Hi I can get it from UK as my brother still lives there and if someone wants one I can get it for you + a little extra. Of course if you don't trust me (why you should?) I can arrange a "meeting day" for delivery in the Venezia-Mestre/Padova area.
If you are interested PM me

I'm Italian but living in London.. was wondering how the warranty will work with devices bought in UK and taken to Italy, in case if issues will you have to send it back in UK?
