Did you actually do a search for "hw6915" on Froogle.com or Froogle.co.uk as you suggested? On Froogle.com, the only place that shows up with the phone is MobilePlanet, but it is for a preorder. Also, a search for "hw6915" on Froogle.co.uk delivers many dealers, but they are also all preorders.

Also, you never replied to my comment in the GPS phone comparison thread about the Pocket Loox Bluetooth specs. According to Fujitsu-Siemens' website (http://www.fujitsu-siemens.com/campaigns/pocket_loox_t/qa.html), the T800 series has Bluetooth 2.0 instead of the 1.2 as listed in your comparison chart.

Yogi76: please understand: I have seen hw6915 available at various retailers online already but I can't and I don't want to give their names because it would be advertising.

Regarding Bluetooth 2.0 : I corrected it already - you can check! However please note that it is not certain whether T800 will have A2DP so I didn't mention it explicitly.

This is a good thing for developers and opens up new software ideas and opportunities (w/o requiring their users to go out and buy an external gps device and jumping thru hoops to get it to work).

Cool!
