Guest greyt Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 Mobilefun website last night said they were in stock. Ordered and then get an email saying they are out of stock. Cancel order and order with Expansys who's website says they had 15 in stock. Get an email confirming order and they are in stock. Now look online and the order status is out of stock with a 7 day lead time. Not impressed!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gilesjuk Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 This place added the QTek 8310 to their website today. No mention of stocks but their SP5 page says "pre-order" and this page doesn't, so who knows. I'd order one there myself but I've already cancelled one order, can't keep doing it lol, plus their website has no mail address, I never like that. http://www.discountgpsdirect.co.uk/qtek-83...wifi-p-453.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BadAssB Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 I placed my order from Discount GPS Direct.co.uk for an Imate SP5 as my mate had already bought one from there. I have been waiting for a little while but I have been assured that they are coming into stock on Fri 28 Oct and mine will be sent via Special Delivery so that I have a chance of getting it on Saturday. The guy did say that I was lucky to be on the pre-order list as most of the stock has already been sold. Cant wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Pondrew Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 Interesting. 35 SP5ms in stock but no SP5s. Must admit I think the SP5 looks better so not that surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TheFox Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 Mobilefun have both the SP5 and SP5M in stock. Ordered mine over the phone earlier and they said they had just come in as I was speaking to them. Also tried ordering one earlier in the week from phones2udirect they were showing them in stock (and still are) but were lying. Not a company I would trust. Cheers ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shadamehr Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 phones2udirect now have them in, as what seems to have happened is that ALL the dealers got their supply today. I got an Email to say mine is arriving tomorrow. Though given all the lies and hassle, I wish I had of stumbled onto MobileFun first maybe... Typical.

Guest GuyAdams Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 What are you doing with it? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Using it to recieve my emails is the first massive bonus, I'm an I.T manager for a large estate agents, I look after 7 locations with a total of 85 employees. The ability to get my emails at each location without having to hassle of booting my laptop and without the hassle of having to kick a user of their PC is for me fantastic. Especially as our helpdesk system works via email. The internet use is ok, if i need to check something online then it is good enough to do so. I only awaiting a remote desktop connection type application or utility that will allow me to connect to my servers or desktop. (all you software developers, i await your contributions!)

Guest cfmj Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 Mine should be at home when I get back ;) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My SP5 is waiting at the post office for me! phones2udirect have actually been pretty good over the last week or so. I complained to them about their web page showing the SP5 in stock and how I was misled into placing an order after speaking to customer services who also told me they were in stock. They apologised and and gave me daily updates of when they expected stock and when it would ship to me. A shaky start has come good. I can't wait to leave work and get down to the PO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest spacerace Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 I'm about to get an SP5m, am I the only one ?! I'm right that there's no difference other than the physical layout/visual difference ? I will need the Exchange SP2 enhancement pack when it comes for WM5 so want to make sure the music version will take this aswell ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kinch Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 I was emailed twice yesterday from MobilFun. The first said that my order was out of stock and they will let me know when it is back in stock. And the second saying its on its way !!!! AND IT ARRIVED THIS MORNING. WOO HOO.

Guest gilesjuk Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 Well I've got mine ;) First impressions, doesn't seem as quick as the Sp3, scrolling is a bit slow, anti virus probably doesn't help. I might try and deactivate it somehow. Not conviced that the build quality is vastly superior to the Sp3. Keys are better than Sp3, buttons on the side could do with being easier to press, the back of the phone looks rubbish, almost like the designer left before finishing it. The 1.3 megapixels text look amaterish, hopefully it will wear off. They really should have made the curve symmetrical like on the Sony Ericsson T630. Joystick is ok, prefer it to the rocker as left and right movements are used a lot in texting and I like a stick when doing that. Some nice touches, the connection manager for activating and deactivating radio types was sorely needed and is welcome. Screen is great, thought mine had scratches at the top but it appears to be some residue from manufacture which will rub off with a cloth. Will see how it goes, the Sp3 seemed the right balance of features and speed, Sp5 adds more features but it should have been smoother than the slightly clunky Sp3, but it appears slightly worse.
