I wonder if we can expect a similar initial price in the UK? (333€ = £220)

[cactusbob]

Hopefully not. Denmark is notoriously expensive. A lot of that price may be tax. Can any of our Danish buddies confirm tax levels on phones over there?

Sales tax = 25%, so actual phoneprice = 266€

(And we pay 50% income tax   :evil:  )

[SpeedFreak]

well this is great news as far as im concerned (well not about your insane danish taxes, my condolances to ya... ), ive had my eye on the c500 for some time and hopefully this danish release will mean that wont be long till its rolled out around europe, meaning i can finally get my greedy hands on one

Im off to australia tomorrow until the start of august, when i get back im hoping to see the first c500's on the shelves!!

Funny that the text mentions an "external SD card slot", when we know for a fact that it's internal ... oh well ..  :roll:

Nice find Jakob  :wink:

[mobillars]

Well if you look in the danish section, I already found that page yesterday, weird that nobody notised that!

[squall]

news post updated.

Sorry for not crediting you to begin with i missed your post.

In future id ask everyone with a tory that could be considered news to pm me so this doesnt happen again

All sorted now

[XePeR]

i was wondering, is there any info on US release and price? Also, are there any pics of the SD slot in question??? [also, I heard this and the MPx 220 use MiniSD, when can we expect to see MiniSD cards floating about???]
