From what I red here, it will be available on Google Play and in SFR shops (one of the four French big carriers).
Not sure the availabilty in the shop is guaranteed at the beginning, but for early December it should be OK.

Thank you,SFR right? Is it simfree or locked?

One more question,in SFR is that 350$ ?

No hint for the moment but I think it won't be more expensive.

i hope so

It will be sim free? anybody know something?

It'll be €300 (about $388 USD) for the 8GB model.

Well, I heard there was a scandal last year because they started selling locked Gnex.
I'm pretty sure they won't make the same mistake this time
As for the price, none can tell already, not sure if they will align theirs with Play Store ones (299/349 € for a 8/16 GB)

im confused

About what ?
The price ? Here in France, unfortunately, it is almost always 1$=1€ (due to value added tax, customs, ...)
The simlock ? It would surprise me. Anyway, bootloader is unlocked, that means root, that means usually pretty easy to remove a potential simlock.

Dunnow yet.
It says they will have them end of November.
I just checked on their website if they are selling the Nexus 7 Tablet.
They do, for example the 16GB version. Unfortunately, I think they still have the old price (249€, and google changed it recently to 199, 249 being the 32GB now)

Apparently, SFR and others will sell it a bit more expensive to compensate... But still, if you have an address, you can order like 2 days before arrival and you may have it

He doesnt have a address :/ how much expensive you guess?

I live in France, and don't think sfr send the phone alone. (I mean with no contract).
And you can be sure, it was sim locked.(like all our phone).
The simply way for you to have a simfree phone in December in France is shop (Fnac, Boulanger, PhoneHouse) they are many in Paris.

I find the price in ebay ridiculously high, isn't it?
Is that price reasonable?
I think The Desire is less apealing than Nexus One.
So, I gonna aim for Nexus One then

Demand and availability pricing I suppose. The prices are higher but unless you know somebody who can ship you one what are your options? I paid US$50 more for mine and think that was okay.
Order it from Google through Borderlinx UK.
There are numerous threads on importing to Germany on android-hilfe.de and pocketpc.ch.

If there is no other way, why not?
Still, ebay price of 700 euro is ridiculous.

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.

Hello...
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...

Hey ahmadmr,
Thanx for your reply...I am not very confident of ordering a phone from somewhere else..especially from another country..there is a similar website here in India..I contacted them and they asked me to wait for a couple of days..so lets see, but thanx again..if it is available in the Middle East (Dubai) I can ask a friend to get it too...
t mobile germany is probably your best bet. ive seen a number of posts saying the phone is unlocked & i think its the 16Gb version too.

any word about release date and where can I order without a contract?
They expect to ship it on the 6th of may.
The €489 (about $726) is without a contract.

??? Everything I read about the processor on reputable sites says 1.2GHz as well.
But that is a sweet deal for you guys!
Edit: And yeah, it's cheaper for Germans even with the 25€ shipping (cheapest I've seen the SGSII go for here is 530€). But for me it's not worth the hassle with support, warranty etc. Much rather pay the 30€ more, get it from amazon.de and don't have to worry about anything else. I'm lazy like that ^^.
They shipped it today, I will have it delivered in 2-3 days according to their email. Exciting Might be one of the first in holland to have this phone!

I see alot of people ordering online but what about the warranty? dont you be afraid that the phone might arrive and have technical problem? as i know phones dont have international warranty so all who are ordering online are taking there chances? and if the phone arrived with technical problem you take it to the local samsung dealer or take it back to the website you ordered from?

What do you mean? If you buy the phone through a webshop, the shop should provide the service of giving you a warranty. Most of the time it's just a regular manufacturer's warranty.
If you buy it from abroad and you need to get it repaired/replaced, you should ship it back to them.
Ok now i get it. Thanks
No problem. Obviously the latter is much more of a hassle since you need to ship it all the way back, though some manufacturers might accept replacements/repairs on products which are bought abroad. Usually small stuff. Dunno if this is also the case with cellphones, so better be safe than sorry.

One year samsung warranty is standard. you can go to any samsung shop to repair your phone with original bill/samsung warranty thingy in the box, did the same with my old omnia and that wasnt any problem.

Is the Omnia 7 no longer in production?

Was just wondering why a year old device still seems to be selling up around the £450 mark SIM free, only thing I can think is limited supply because it's no longer being made, coupled with still reasonable demand.
It was being sold for 200€ few months ago in Germany by TMobile . I couldn't resist that and bought it. 199€ phone and 12.9€ shipping from neighbours.

in 99% of cases the postage is the same for each EU country, sorry I thought it was obvious but probably the best thing is to ask the seller directly
I managed to get one over here for a decent price.

Release date for Australia?

hi guys,
does anyone have any ideas when the note will be released in Australia? can't wait to upgrade my Streak for it. always loved Samsung phones for their Amoled screens.
if they're not in Australia any soon, might look for one on eBay
thanks guys
If you're planning to buy it off-contract anyway, MobiCity are selling them already.
Note will be released in AU early next year.
EBay is pretty expensive now. Why not try expansys which had the lowest price now for €455 plus delivery (about AU$ 750). It's really good time to buy while AU dollar is high.

hi,
just wondering where you got the 455 Euro from on the website?
because they are all around € 619,99 on the site
thanks
We don't pay VAT, dude. You can remove that from the price.
i see.....lol...
If I buy it from a European Country other than UK....will it have English Language on it and will it work properly in Australia? What about also the abilities for system updates?
Thanks again....

If you buy a EU version, then you will still have the ability to select English as your language on the initial setup screen. Android support multiple languages.
You also can apply updates as all EU zone use the same thing.

Hi mate, it's from a German site which doesn't ship to Australia (I tried). The current cheapest one I find is expansys.com which is 480 ponds including postage (AUD730 based on last night exchange rate. AUD is worth less today after the interest cut).

I pre-ordered from them on 12th Oct which price is 4 ponds less than the current one. But, my order still hasn't been processed yet. I called them yesterday and they told me should be post yesterday but they didn't.
For the EU verion ordered from expansys, you can remove the UK convertor from your order detail screen which save you 0.99 ponds. And choose DHL instead FedEx for delivery.
