...just got it from www.digitec.ch.
it is simply AMAZING...i don't know what to say, it is my third HTC device but the quality looks to be far improved...
Will recieve mine too from digitec.ch. Hope it arrives tomorrow but it could be that I have to wait an entire weekend
Cant wait to see the quality of the phone.
Btw, they have many german phones on on stock now. The price is about 827.- CHF which is about 554€ (no shipment costs in switzerland).
So hurry and buy one there
Digitec doesnt ship to uk or spain?
I have emailed them to ask about shipping to UK but no responce yet :S
same here, it is a great price and googlecheckout cancel my order to handtec :\
i received it today .. from comdatanet .. ...
digitech do NOT ship to UK
Do they ship to Germany?
I dont know where they ship and where not, but there is bad news at the moment.
The price suddenly raised to 889.- CHF about 594€. At the moment the prices fluctuate very much so its best to check every time the actual price.
I this as soon as the other big online shop in switzerland will have the HD on stock the price of digitec will fall again.
If you want to check the most online shops in switzerland at once go to www.toppreise.ch an search for the "HTC Touch HD" in the upper left corner of the website. Perhaps you find a shop with reasonable price which ships to you country.
Hope you'll succeed.
The email said they don't ship their products to foreign countries at all.
hope this helps.

Sorry to hear that in-stock Swiss price has risen again. I expect German prices to fall back to around 570€ quickly, once o2 Germany starts selling it at that price.

I ordered my HD from digitec on the 6th of November, it's already in the mail and I'll receive it on Monday the 10th. I got my English version for 869., including vat and free shipping. Can't wait!
Happy for you. Mine has been shipped today, and I hope to have it in hands tomorrow or Monday. Happy unboxing...

I bought mine also at digitec.ch for 827.- CHF. Was very lucky!
They shipped my unit today too, but unfortunately the post offices in switzerland wont deliver packages on saturday so I think I will have to wait until monday til I have my HD in my hands.
Really cant wait for it!

Did you get that price with an English language model?
It is going to be hard to wait all weekend to unbox that baby. My Trinity is already looking at me with sad eyes
I've started collecting cabs for the HD already. There are a few from the Diamond forum that sound interesting, like the landscape typing app gyrator 2 etc.
I took the german version. This morning the english version was also at a price of 827.- CHF. Now all versions raised in their price
Yeah...will be the hardest weekend of all, at least I will be a little distracted while learning for some tests an university.
Monday morning I will be up asap
I also started sollecting some apps to improve the HD experience. Hope they will work like on the diamond or touch pro.
i ordered mine for 907 CHF, in september. On monday, i contacted them since the list price had fallen to 888 and asking about the delivery time. Despite it is not their usual policy, they refunded me of the difference and they shipped on the same day.
Notice that the change in price is simple and mathematical consequence of the EUR/CHF exchange rate: 1.52....1.42...1.48...
...sorry to insist for those that don't have it yet....It is an amazing device, i cannot believe it.
I could read the pdf manual on the screen one page at a time...and i can keep the smallest font without loosing readibility. I tried to take a picture of it with my Nikon camera, but i am not able to render it.
the LCD is incredibly sharp, the small pixel size has a strange effect on my brain. I almost prefer to read small at high resolution - without moving the eyes - than reading on a large screen with less resolution...
...and for my trinity friends: my trinity now looks cheap plastic, this one looks solid metallic and has a fantastic feeling....the screen looks glass....looking for a problem somewhere - but i cannot find it yet!!!
...I stop here, I don't know what to say in order to describe my satisfaction!!!!

Hi guys, i know this is not a normal question in these forums but i don't know where else to look.
apart from ebay, is there any other way an australian can get their hands on an htc x7501?
any help is appreciated.
thanx in advance
After extensive searching, the only place I found was ebay. Also, just making sure that you know the X7501 does not have a front camera for video calls. Only the X7500 does.
that would be because the X7501 is only for the North American Market, the X7500 is for the rest of the world, but obviously it depends on orders from the retailers and networks as to whether the distributors will bother to import it.
i would say Ebay all the way, or from a reputable worldwide online retailer such as expansys or someone similar.

WHy do you want a 7501 rather than a 7500? Did you realise the 7501 is the same but just missing the front camera?
Unfortunately, when I asked the same question of HTC on Oct 24, they replied "
"There is no plans for a release of HTC Advantage X7500/X7501 at this current stage. The shift is due for release last quarter of this year, hopefully this will suite your requirements."
The Shift doesn't suit my requirements so I ordered a 7501 from Mobileplanet - it arrived yesterday!
I asked HTC where I could buy Dopod U1000 back in March this year. They replied that they will not be sellin this device in Australia and New Zealand.
They said the Telco in Australia wanted to charge them an arm and leg for 'testing fee', which HTC refused to pay.
So I got mine from Singapore, and found out that no testing is needed. It just worked.
I don't see SHIFT doing well at all in Australia. It's too small to be used as a Vista machine but too big to be carried around. It's too battery poor, and too slow. I do see Advantage/Athena doing very well in Australia. It is almost a perfect device.
Thanx for the reply guys. i know the differences between the x7500 and x7501 but the increase in price just for the front camera is not justified. i dont use video call anyway.
i'll check out mobileplanet, how much did you pick it up for?
also fixerboy, how long did it take to be sent to you from the day you ordered it? and how much was the combined price with shipping in AUD? was there any customs fees?
thanx
Approx $A1200 inc shipping and a 4 in 1 cable - Ordered approx 10 days ago - said backlog was until Nov 22 but the day before yesterday, the tracker said it was backlogged for 9 days - then it showed up yesterday so approx 12 days from order to arrival.
excellent news. i might order it today. i had a look through the checkout process, do you remember which shipping option you chose? in other words, which ones apply to australia? is "rest of the world - 3 - 4 days" the only option available to australians?
also, how did you pay? credit card, wire transfer?
thanx

Hi all,
I've been hunting on craigslist and fleabay for ages and most guys won't ship to Oz and the coupld that would I got outbid or gazumped and missed them.
There's like 2 on fleabay anyway as they don't seem to come up much. Short of paying 900USD for one new is there any where you can suggest I can pick up a second hand one? I have a budget and can pay reasonable money (they close on ebay in the US usually for around $600, the 7500 slightly more).
hi, i am in nsw & might be looking to part with my advantage 7510. would you like to email me at [email protected] to further discuss?
awesome, email sent. Is it really the 7510?

As the 7510 isn't released yet I would be VERY careful. Never hand over any money until you have the device in your hand.
i've emailed him and havent heard back yet but i'm sure it's just a typo as he's posted before about running it here in Oz with three.
just emailed back mactablet it is the 7501 not the 7510 sorry aout the typo there

I had a lot of problems finding one to buy in Australia I eventually brought new from eXpansys Australia, they shipped over the UK model.
The Maps are all for the UK, so you have to get Aussie Tom Tom maps.
And if the advantage needs fixing it has to be sent away to the UK which takes a couple of weeks. I have had a problem with the keyboard pressing buttons when no one is touching it for a while now, (I think there is something wrong with the magnetics) but I won't send it away as I can't live without it for 2 to 3 weeks and I can do without the keyboard
Dear all,

Sorry to tell you, but I ordered my THD around November 13th via the O2 phone hotline and received it just 2 week later.
go to a smaller store. better not in the city.
i bough mine directly in an o2 shop.
hamburg in stock
Bought mine on Tuesday in hamburg.
phoned all the o2 shops and found 2 small stores with the phone in stock.
Would advise you the same.
But be careful most of them only want to sell them bundled with an o2 contract.
But it should be a really big Problem to get one.
(at least if you have a city near by)
Sorry for my english,
I'm out of practice....
Thanks for the feedback guys, I'll look for it tomorrow (right, I'm in Munich)
Best regards.
"go to a smaller store. better not in the city."
I live right in cologne, but thanks.
And I already continued my contract in that O2-Shop.
So I think I am fixed to this store.
But I will visit the shop in the afternoon again.
Maybe they need a little pressure.
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.
just read it in the news: sony officially announced the releasedate for the xperia z in germany to be the 21th of february. but at this date, only in berlin.
on the 22nd, it'll be available in stores everywhere in germany.
yeaahhh...finally.....looking forward....i'm so exited... :laugh::good:
Ordered mine through Clove UK, hopefully it'll release on the 21th, not the 28th

This is going to be interesting.
I ordered it through a danish company that get their phones from Germany ( I live in Norway).
According to them I'm supposed to recieve it 7-9 days from now.
I could have pre ordered it from Norway but they have expected dates of 7th of march, and so far none have offered the purple one.
Although I have no confirmation for this I have a strong feeling the dk26 will be bundled.
Norwegian hands on review shows this, and I've read that people in France, Germany and others also will get this.

Just cancelled my order!
Found out now after asking for updated info that now the expected date was 1st of April. What an absolute JOKE
I will probably check a bit more around during the weekend if there is anywhere to get the purple one.
Seems like it is sold out across the board..
Well well, looks like I now might actually pass on this and keep my one x for a while longer and see what others are to offer.
Sad, i really liked the exterior of the Z
Where are you located and who did you order from?
Btw, black, white or purple?

Definitely uppie :good:! it's really an awesome device! Love it even more every minute. but maybe i'm the wrong benchmark, because i'm coming from a good old htc hd2 (leo).
i ordered the black one, 'cause i think it's the most elegant and timeless color. the white one looks nice, too, but the black screen on the front...
the purple one is a nice one also, but i'm afraid after a few month i'll be fed up by this color.
i don't regret purchasing this phone. it's just brilliant in my opinion.
