Further dodgy perplexities with phoneboxdirect - they are charging £40 per month for a ridiculously pathetic 450 xnet mins & 200 txts.

I know Orange like to rip their customers off, but I think even they would draw the line charging that much for this phone.

Even the N95 (which lest we forget is Nokia's current top-of-the-range, flagship phone) cost less than this, FREE on contract and with more minutes when it first came out.

The 6500 is nice, but it sure as hell ain't Nokia's top-of-the-range. So why is the contract so much?

Hmmm..... Phoneboxdirect, are you now beginning to tread in your own bullsh!t? Thought so...

    Hi All! As the phone is not even in mass production in Europe yet, phoneboxdirect is just a money pull bulls..t. Best case, is that they take the order and gonna ship the device in a couple of months. Worst case, I let you think on it.

    As being in the industry for some years I have the luck to have some of these newcommers from different manufacturers beforhand. This beauty seems to be a good quality mid range unit. Quality cover, good quality music (with my BH-501). Keyboard is easy to handle. Good push points with a good feel. Even from the prototype.

    How it's gonna work? Never know with the prototypes. Also had it for too short of a time to know how the battery works. Features are as promised. Data connection is stable. Seems to be a good second phone for me. Miss the full keyboard as I am 24/7 online and read e-mails on phones as well. But for the weekend, or travel, I would take it.

      I found that phonboxdirect.com was selling the 6500 last week.

      BUT

      The website looks a bit amatuer, despite their being "good" contact information.

      Even more importantly - this phone is not even available direct on Orange yet. So how is it that phoneboxdirect have got hold of it, even before Orange?

      And why are they the ONLY retailer selling the phone?

      Hmmm.. Does anyone else smell some bullsh!t about this website?

                Is the talk time 5hrs30 mins or 3hrs30mins like I read on many other sites. I am considering buying this phone but only if the battery life is 300hrs and 5hr30 and not 216hrs and 3hrs30. Which one is true?

                  Since it seem like it will not be out for while. I decided to buy the Nokia 6120 since it was lighter and on S60 plat form and not S40. The menu seems easier to use on S60.

                                    Nokia doesn't like to give release dates. I wish I knew when it was coming out. They released the Luna and Prism right after announcement, but not the 6500
