    I'm getting a bit fed up of people saying that this phone is 'out' in the UK.

    Okay, so apparently 3 are offering it on new contracts now, but the fact that all the other networks are still fobbing us off with random release dates (including my own) clearly shows that this is phone is far from being 'available'.

    I don't see why I should have to change network just to acquire one.

    The fact is Nokia have messed up big time with this. They should never have promised a release date of Q4 2005. I know that these things can be delayed, but literally years are spent developing these products and there really is no excuse.

    My loyalty to Nokia as a brand has all but disappeared. Like many others here I feel cheated.

    If this phone is 'out', try finding one in the high street. Other than 3 it can't be done...

    Sunday morning rant over! Too sunny out there to be sat here doing this!

            You state the Nokia 6280 is a worthy loser to phones like the d600 an k750. I'm trying to say that's maybe true in the eyes of the reviewer but not in mine. I do not care, for EXAMPLE, for the quality of pictures it takes. For that, i've got a camera. But I do care for design and let's be honoust, nobody can design a phone better then Nokia.
            For that matter I owned the SE w800 but it was really not what I was looking for in a phone. Now i'm waiting patiently to get my own 6280..

              Nobody is talking about only the quality of pictures here. i am stressing more on the fact that they take a lot of time to release a phone.

                      does anyone know if the vodaphone version is going to the the all black version as the silver version looks cheap and tacky? I assume the black version is just for 3 subscribers??

                      If it is silver on vodaphone can the case be changed to a black version using a replacement faceplate?
                      Any thoughts most appreciated - thanks in advance

                        Just ordered my 6280 from 3. They are so much cheaper than Orange its unbelievable. I was using a friends 6680 on 3 and his RF was always better than my 6230 on Orange. I'm so fed up of waiting for this phone that I just gave into 3 in the end. It will be here on Tuesday, I can't wait!

                          It's the design, ease of use and the quality of the materials that makes the Nokia better then other manufacturers. Not the quality of pictures it takes..

                              Unfortunately Nokia is becoming very very slow in releasing their phones. SE P990 that was announced later than NOKIA 6280 has already been released and is already in stores. By the way there is another review of the phone in www.mobile review.com and it doesnt give the phone any praise at all infact the phone is a worthy loser to phones of the same class like SGH D600 and SE k750i. To me it doesnt sound encouraging to wait for a phone that wont live up to its expectations.

                                Has anyone managed to get the silver version of this phone, because all the sites i have come across (which have stock) picture the silver one but they only have the black one!

                                    phone will hit 3 shops australia middle of next week...confirmed.

                                    The question is...Just how thick is this phone?? is it as thick as samsung 600 slider phone (which is a beautiful design mind u) or fatter? Does it pass for a regular 2g phone?
