OK, don't know how many of you saw this, but there are now 8 countries confirmed to be getting the P800 next week: Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Italy and Greece as well as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Hong Kong. It could also be available in some African countries.

The thing that really gets me is the "some African countries" in the article. Besides South Africa, what African country will consume any quantity of these phones? (Egypt?) In any event, the market can't be as big as say, oh, GERMANY or FRANCE or UK.

OK time to find an alternative. SE cannot deliver so how are they going to be able to support the P800.
I saw the XDA the other day – looks fantastic.
What other alternatives are there to the P800 ???
