wow, jus check out the price of the long-awaited 7610 here in Singapore.

its the SAME price as my 6600 when it was first launched! (HOW UNFAIR!!! :-x )

it is selling at S$898 (USD = US$521.15) without any plan and upgrade or trade-in!!!

Well, now i regret buying my 6600....sob sob... :sad:

hahhaa....

you realised about the price too! I just come across the price board posted outside a mobile shop in Orchard last evening after a hearty Thai-meal. Isn't that babe a great disappointment? I expected it to cost more for whatever it got to offer.

Though i spent not much for my dino egg, i could not imagine 7610 to price exactly like 6600 during its inital launch.

phew.... hopes dashed for getting that baby.

That's strange too! :-?

During early launch last Xmas, 6600 was priced at S$898 though i had bought it at S$300 - it was an exclusive discount from Nokia Promo.
And for 7610, it is also priced at S$898. And it is even a heart breaker that together with contract and 6600 trade, this babe costs even cheaper - just S$480. Can you imagine? :sad:

I got mine for AUD990 (incl EMS+Insurance)

AUD990 = USD 674.686 = EUR 560.504

I bought mine off Ebay.com.au, item shipped from Hong Kong to Australia
I couldn't wait any longer ;)

This price might influence some people into purchasing one, or prevent one from purchasing one. Whichever way, I don't care ... cause I *hate* the Nokia 6630 design ... (no offense to those who do)

Yeah :)
This is really cheap, I´m going to buy it as soon as it comes to me...
I will pay about 200 EURO and this is really cheap!

I get all phones from my operator for this price, but I have to pay every month 5 EURO and the connection price is also good...
For example: 5mb Data Transfer over GPRS for free! :lol:

Haha in Singapore, I saw my 9210 selling for $1000! Wow~~~

I don't know how much 7610 was, it was given to me by my Uncle; the E+SC model (english/simplified chinese) and didn't come with any decent games!!! How crap!~ Its the Singtel model.

The Nokia 7610 has dropped $100 here on Ebay.com.au ~ despite the fact that the 7610 still isn't released in Australia.

My guess is that 7610 will be around in mid-July for us Aussies.

My 7610 arrives today via EMS from Hong Kong. So excited! :D :D :D

I just brought mine in UK @ www.livetelecom.com on a Vodafone contract:

Nokia 7610 - £169.99
Business Contract - £12.00 (monthly) x 12 = £144.00

Total: £313.99

Bonus: The fone was sim-free without the annoying Vodafone logo anywhere!!

Downside: The manual was in Finnish!!

You can buy them from ebay for £300 gbp but, it is £30 shipping, and also you could get taxed, the seller ships from hong kong, and sais one in 10 people get taxed!. Although this is cheap i would rather buy it new from uk and get a warranty and insurance :D
