I have heard that UK wholesale dealers such as 20x20 (carphone wareshouse) are NOT taking the SX1 beacuse they they regard it as too expensive and out of date at due to delays.

Can anyone confirms this? since it is still not on general release yet.

Well the latest rumours (which sound reasonably convincing) in this Club Siemens thread (http://www.club-siemens.net/forum/viewthread.php?tid=33004&page=2) say it will be available in CPW and the Link next week.
