#19 harold shipman

Can people please STOP posting stupid comments that have nothing to do with this phone. Socks and arse gas are not related to this phone it is very silly and wrong to post these things. Ok now thats clear here is my question:

I just tried to construct a scale model of a cat out of matches and I was wondering how close I could possition it to my electric fire before it catches fire, can anyone help? I estimate 20cm but im not sure

9:23 pm - Thursday, April 13, 2006

#20 micro angel

Can anyone tell me when this will be available on orange in the UK. iv checked their site but as of today they have no information? also i am currently using tomtom mobile v5.20 on my nokia 7610 but would this work on the n80 as its a series 60v3 and has the higher res screen that caused problems for versions v5.0 and lower like on the n70?
Any information would be helpful thanks
Angel

#21 Prince Harry

I've too been waiting for the arrival of the Nokia N80, but have since discovered that the mentioned 'cat-of-matches' does in-fact ignite at slightly more than 20cm from a standard bar heater. It may have been the slight over use of glue, or the fact it had a very hairy tail.

Hope this helps.

10:49 pm - Thursday, April 13, 2006

#22 newall

no wont be on flext 35 that is a band d tarriff i work for phones 4 u it will be free on 3 vt n t 1100 flext 50

The N80 will be out in April on Vodafone. I have searched and it seems that no other Tariff are realising it just yet. However O2 will be releasing the Sony Ericcson K800i which also has a 3 mega pixel camera! i THINK i WILL WAIT UNTIL THIS FONE IS AVAILABLE ON FLEXT 35 TOO!! HOW GREAT ARE THOS OFFERS!!! X

#32 CSJ Phones4u

I can confirm that the Nokia N80 is being released exclusively to Vodafone and will be available at the beginning of May 2006 in Phones4u stores in limited numbers.

The main tariff it will be available on will be a new £40 per month tariff giving 500mins and 250texts. The handset will cost £50 on this tariff and will not be discounted to free.

Visit your local Phones4u store at the beginning of May to see this handset, the new Sony Ericsson W810i and the Benq Siemens EF81 exclusive to Phones4u.

9:09 pm - Monday, April 24, 2006

#33 craig

thats wrong the w810i is availible now in carphone warehouse and is not exclusive to p4u the n80 is 3g handset and 3 have the first rights to it 3 concessions will have it 2 weeks b4 p4u i work for p4u and have spoke to the 3 rep

7:38 am - Tuesday, April 25, 2006

#34 CSJ Phones4u

Craig, I didn't say the W810i was exclusive to P4U.

The N80 is a 3G handset but it will be initially exclusive to Vodafone then O2 will have it on their network, I doubt T-mobile will even support the handset this quarter. The Network "3" will not have the first rights to this handset simply because it is a UMTS handset.

The Exclusive handset to P4U is the Benq-Siemens EF81 which is a slim 3G Razr style handset with quite an amazing screen and a brushed metal case. This will be available on 3.

Wow!! I finally have the N80 in my hands since it was just released. Of course, the year is 2414 and I am using the trans-temporal internet browser to post here over 400 years in the past!! You have no idea how long THIS feature delayed the release of the N80. Now that I have it, I can't wait for the N93 to come out. I am already putting aside the funds so that my great great great grandchildren can buy one.

6:17 am - Wednesday, April 26, 2006

Hi, just wondering when the N80 will be available on O2. I have ordered it but their rep didnt know when it was coming?

3:17 pm - Thursday, April 27, 2006

#37 Craig

Right people, I have spent extensive time on the phone to 02 talking solely about this phone. The Nokia N80 WILL be released on the O2 network on the 15th May, and that is official!!

2:27 pm - Friday, April 28, 2006

#38 Vijay

I have also been on the phone to 02 and they have also advised that this phone will be available on 15 May.

3:01 pm - Friday, April 28, 2006

I forgot to mention that I bought a 1GB miniSD card for this device (even though I've not even got it yet) for a bargain price of £25 of ebay. The item was from Hong Kong but arrived within just over a week.

8:35 pm - Monday, May 1, 2006

#47 CSJ P4U

Phones4u POS show "3 Megapixel Videophone". The long window POS shows no network logo and the in store A3 POS which is on the reverse of the W810i POS shows the Vodafone logo with "500mins and 250texts".

The 6280 is on 3 as is the Benq EF81.

What is the 3 digit store code for Bolton and your full name Newall?

>CSJ

10:11 pm - Wednesday, May 3, 2006

#48 Craig Newall

yes the sign in the window that is facing inwards, until instucted to turn it round has no network logo to be honest i have not looked on the back of the w810i pos.
all the info we have had is that we are getting n80 in store the back end of next week on the t/h display the n80 is listed on every network exept t-mo i think, going off wot the 3 concession in superdrug told me it will be on 3 next week and my sfc informed me the same but noone can be certain until we get it instore.
if u want the store go on mis contacts bolton store

For those of you monitoring the release of the Nokia N80. I noticed that the e2save website has advertised it on 02 for a limited number. I have checked again today with 02 for the release date any they are still looking at 15 May 06.

1:24 pm - Monday, May 8, 2006

#54 Chandan

Craig,

The N80 came in on the delivery today (Sat 13th) and they were all on Vodafone as expected.

All sold out within an hour.

It will be out 15th May on o2, P4U stores may not get stock of this the same day however.

Did you get a chance to look at the handset? What do you think? I didn't love the slide not being sprung loaded, apart from that, I didn't see it long enough to make a proper judgement!!!

Gutted about the EF81 delays!

Lets hope the EF81 goes on sale soon as well as the N80 on all the networks, the N91, E61 and D800 pink soon too!

Hi

I really want to upgrade to the N80 on Tmobile. T mobile wont support it but in p4u on sat they told me that by the end of the week generic gsm handsets will be available so then they can do it, Carphonewarehouse will be a couple of weeks behind and the link didnt know what I was talking about. Can anyone shed anymore light?

Cheers

4:38 pm - Sunday, May 14, 2006

#57 Chandan

Barbie,

P4U will probably not have the GSM handsets in stock anytime soon, they will be locked to Vodafone or O2.

We have had the N70 for nearly a year and have not had ONE GSM handset, they have been locked to each network. I expect this will be the case with the N80.

Even IF the Generic GSM handsets were available, the P4U Tills will not allow the handset being sold on any T-mobile Tariff if it has not been supported by the network.
An example of this is the much awaited Sony Ericsson W810i, P4U have the unlocked GSM handsets but cannot sell the phones on any network except Vodafone or O2.

It will be a long wait for the N80 on T-mobile, especially on an upgrade unfortunately.

>CSJ Phones4u

7:59 pm - Sunday, May 14, 2006

#58 Vijay

As you maybe aware that this phone was suppose to be released today. I'd phone 02 this morning and they said that the date has been put back to 5 June 06. I'd also called a few 02 stores, and they have all said that we don't have a release date but there expecting them in, in the next few weeks.

It looks like were going to be waiting for a bit longer.

11:49 am - Monday, May 15, 2006

I'VE ORDERED MINE ON ORANGE! Should arrive tomorrow, FINALLY! It's available on their website for new users only, but if you're an existing customer you can phone them on 150 and they will upgrade you. I had to pay £49.99 for the upgrade (cheap at the price) from my horrible Samsung D500. So keen!

i can confirm that orange is doing the n80. when I rang them they wanted either 39 pound and a 12 month contract, or I could have the handset free if I chose the 18 month contract. hope this info helps others

#65 audrey crackett

i have just been using the N80 in the car and i was reaching down to get a carton of juice out of the glovebox, only took a few seconds, but. i sort of moved from my lane into the other lane and when i noticed i paniced and over compensated with the wheel, i have now mounted the kerb and hit a road sign. I cant start my car and i think a man in a red shirt phoned the police, i can see him looking out of his window now. Can someone quickly tell me what to tell the police when they get here? and please be quick i dont have much time.

11:38 pm - Thursday, May 18, 2006

#66 VJ_UK

Audrey Crackett - Are you sure its a red shirt or could it have been a white shirt but now it has blood all over it?..


1) Tell the police you was dazed by the sun..
2) A baby rabbit was crossing the road and you had to steer away..

11:27 am - Friday, May 19, 2006

#67 pinkting

well its an obviouse answer,the nokia n80 is so advanced that it put you in a trance whilst trying to gain control of the car but,luckily for you you managed to regain control of yourself and battled with the phone for control of the steering wheel,hence crashing into the signpost.thank goodness the phone is also advanced enough to know when its in the wrong, otherwise there could be red tshirts everywhere.

4:06 pm - Saturday, May 20, 2006

#68 Deano

Right I too have been phoning up o2 for the release dates of the N80. My upgrade was available from March 23rd so I have been waiting all this time. At that point they told me 1st of May. So I waited, 1st of May comes and then its the 15th. I thought 'if ive waited this long whats another 2 weeks'. Phone on the 15th, they say 22nd. Whats another week eh? Phone on the 22nd (yesterday), they say computers down but they have the 22nd of June!!! So I phone back today thinking this can't be right, and they have assured me it will be released in 'the next two days' and that 'it's on the system but not available to sell'. I guess ill be phoning all day tomorrow then

1:17 pm - Tuesday, May 23, 2006

#69 Vijay

Are you sure thats correct Deano?

I just got your message so thought I'd ring to be on the safe side. I was told again that the release date is 5 June. They've actually put me on the reserve list this time round for when it does come available.

1:30 pm - Tuesday, May 23, 2006

#70 Deano

I rang just under an hour ago and that was exactly what i was told. I wasn't told anything about a reserve list. But I'm not calling back cause their system was so slow! They said it was down yesterday evening. I might try and call them back before they close to see whats going on again.

1:34 pm - Tuesday, May 23, 2006

#71 Deano

I have now been told that o2 are quoting £129 for the n80 and they are taking in small shipments of them in the lead up to the official june 5th release date.
2 things:

1) Will the 'im changing networks' excuse get o2 to offer the phone for free? (If not what will?)

2) Ive heard wifi on the orange n80s does not let you connect to your home connection. Any news on the o2 ones?

1:52 pm - Tuesday, May 23, 2006

#72 Vijay

I've already made a few enquiries about my upgrade and they've offered me half price line rental for 12 mths (I'm on 02 Leisure time plus). But not sure what they will offer when N80 comes out. It depends on who you speak to, some of them offer you a good deal and some are not bothered.

I’ve been monitoring another forum and found that person did have a problem with his Orange N80 connecting to his home Wi-Fi but he managed to resolve it. Therefore I cant see it been a problem apart understanding how to do it and setting it up.

2:03 pm - Tuesday, May 23, 2006

#73 Vijay

For those of you thinking of using N80 as a GPS via TomTom

Does TomTom work on TomTom Mobile 5?

TomTom Support Team - "At present this is not the case, the Nokia N80 is not currently supported by our software. We can not provide a specific date/timeframe as to when this may change and can only recommend that you continue to check our website on a regular basis for updates relating to this matter"

4:28 pm - Tuesday, May 23, 2006

#74 pinkting

ok,so ive jst spoken to o2 about the fact that they might be charging £129 for n80 and yes its true,so i obviously went for the angle of "well orange will give me the fone today for £50 with my same current tarrif i have with o2 (online 200).they said they cant reduce handset price but will charge me £20 pm for the whole 12 months instead of £30 pm,basically the handset will only cost me a £10er doing it this way,so yes haggeling works,
hooray......................

5:01 pm - Tuesday, May 23, 2006

#75 Tony

Ive had mine from CFW on o2 since 3rd May, I have connected it to my wireless home connection and it works great, but faster to use PC than surf with it. The camera is outstanding with most features found on a normal digital one. bit wide on the dimensions side but you get used to it. Ive got Tomtom mobile and can confirm it definatley doesnt work on it (YET apparently):-/ all in all its great little phone and I bought a 2GB card on ebay (£40) and music is cool on it and for the size of the speaker it kicks out a good loud sound. you get a 128 standard with it. I also paid £129 and they wouldnt shift on that price even though they quoted my £240 to start with. Im happy

6:51 pm - Tuesday, May 23, 2006

#76 jamie watson

Hi there i have been in touch o2 UK and they recon that they will not have them in until June the 5th!! Who have you guys spoken to at o2???

8:57 pm - Thursday, May 25, 2006

#77 Vijay

Jamie - You can get the phone on 02 via Carphonewarehouse but they then handle the billing and everything, don’t know much about it. 02 themselves like you said will have the phone available on 5 June. I've managed to prebook mine.. but not sure on how much it going to cost. There a few ppl on here speculate that it will be £129. Hope this helps.

10:24 pm - Thursday, May 25, 2006

#78 Deano

Just phoned o2, to see if there was any chance of getting pre-stock. I found out that the release date has been moved back AGAIN to June 15th!!!!!!

12:52 pm - Tuesday, May 30, 2006

#79 Vijay

Your joking!

What are they playing at!?

So far Vodaphone and Orange have already released the phone on there network..

I’m afraid to call them now cos I’d been phoning every week to see what the status was on the phone since April. I bet my call history with them will be quite big.

1:03 pm - Tuesday, May 30, 2006

#80 Vijay

Deano,

I've told the date has been put back from 5 June to 12 June (delay of one week)

1:39 pm - Tuesday, May 30, 2006

#81 Deano

You know what, i dont even think they know when its going to be released themselves. Theyve been telling different stories to different people. Ive also been told by one o2 customer service advisor that there is a reserve list that ive been put on. When i phoned up next time the guy said there was no such thing and o2 cannot do that for phones they dont have!? I seriously think itll be the end of June before we see this phone on o2.

3:55 pm - Tuesday, May 30, 2006

#82 Christ

I have just spoken to o2 who advised me the phone will be released to customers on the 15.06.06 at a cost of £60 (Well that was the cost for myself, and i pay around £30 a month)

1:01 pm - Thursday, June 1, 2006

#83 Deano

I really wish that was true. Im sure its not though. Ive been 'advised' wrongly so many times, if I got £1 every time they were wrong i'd be a millionaire. The price theyve given you they must have just guessed. Because as i've been told 100 times, they dont have the phone yet, so it's not on their system, so they dont have details.... I'll still be calling on the 15th though Its a nice phone.

5:05 pm - Thursday, June 1, 2006

#84 Hanco

N80 - Available at Carphone Warehouse, P4U and Orange shops today. Deals as confusing as ever make it virtually impossible to work out which is best. Evryone offers a deal about £40-£45 month line rental and phone free. Can't find better on the web yet which seems odd since they don't have to rent the shop etc... will keep looking.

7:13 pm - Sunday, June 4, 2006

#85 David Smith

Why does it seem that the USA is always so behind in these sorts of matters. I mean I wanted this phone and had to go through some strange hurdles to get it but it still has not arrived at my door. If anyone in the UK is looking for a deal on the N80 just go to froogle and it will help. As far as the US people go....good luck. I'm not sharing my secret.

4:20 am - Sunday, June 11, 2006

#86 Deano

HELL YEA! My nokia N80 is coming in 1-2 days!!! o2 just got them in stock, so run run!!! They wanted £229 for it, hope its worth it!!! They only got em in silver, but you can buy the black fascias on ebay.

10:50 am - Monday, June 12, 2006

#87 Jamie Watson

Dude!!! I spoke to them this morning, managed to get mine for 49 quid each!! As I was upgrading two of them!! They couldn't tell me when I would recieve them as she said they were on back order, but she did say it would be soon. I might call them later to check the progess!!

10:54 am - Monday, June 12, 2006

#88 Deano

Mine has been dispatched. The price doesn't matter that much to me. But I am only on the £19 a month contract. So thats probably why. I forgot to say they took £50 off so i got the phone for £179.00 and they reduced my contract cost to £11.00 so I'm not really paying that much.

11:07 am - Monday, June 12, 2006

#89 Deano

I called them back. They reduced my contract cost by £14 a month as they can't take any more then £50 off the quoted price of the phone for my tariff '£229'.
And i've worked out how good a deal I have.

They took off £50 so thats £179
Then £14 off my tariff a month for 12 months totals to £168

£229 - £50 - £168 = £11

So technically i'm paying £11 for the phone :D and next year ill have a really cheap contract.

02 only have silver n80's. Anyone know if the covers are changeable? Ebay has black covers for around a fiver but are they all good or not?

They told me I would be one of the first 50 to recieve them as part of my deal with them. They had 50 in today, thats why they were allowed to take orders. 02 dont do backup orders unless they have some stock. It was because I made up an orange deal i was going to move to and they fell for it.

I am guaranteed delivery in 1-2 days. It has already been dispatched. Ill let you know when i get it. I just want to know about the changeable fascias.

I've got an O2 contract which expires any day, what is the best way to get a cheap deal on this phone on 02? What do I say to them etc?

I have a £19.99 tariff at the moment but am willing to pay about £25-£30 a month. I don't want to have to pay a big price for the phone straight away because it might quickly go down to free.

I didn't realise my contract expires so soon so I have to call in the next few days. Please help.

Its on the o2 website once you log in.
Just tell them youll switch to orange because theyll offer you a better deal. And mention you wouldnt mind raising the price of your contract.

Ive got the phone and..... i gotta say.... IT IS AMAZING! Best phone ive ever seen. Everything works great.
Just one question.. phone recognises and allows WLAN connection and it says it is active. But when I click on web, it still comes up with the 'connection needed to server needed, connect?' message and if I click yes, it comes up 'connecting via 02 gprs'. Does this mean Im paying 02 to connect?? I thought WLAN was free to use, this question sounds stupid to me... but what am I doing wrong??

OK so I called up 02 and I have got the phone for free and have a tariff of £25 a month, but it's for 18 months. The woman said that they don't allow 12 month contracts for the phone at all, is that true?

I'm excited about getting the phone, bit worried though as I want to use the TomTom sat nav (which I'm going to buy in a few months) but it's not yet working.
