I know I can get them on e-bay but if possible would rather give someone here the business. It has to be unlocked or work with Cellular One. PM me the best price you can do.

TIA

www.myworldphone.com i got my 8801 from them a few weeks ago and i havn't had any issues. some have though so beware.

 

+2 ... check eBay, I know some T-Mobile stores stop selling them...not sure why? maybe its wasn't a big hit....and theirs a Nokia store at Woodfield and downtown...

 

Thanks for the input guys, wanted to see if any 6speeders had them first.

 

I thought you had one? or Do you have an 8800?

 

i bought one last weekend from a local store for 360 including tax. it may be few dollars more than e-bay (with their high shipping price). but i have a receipt and got 2 years warranty from nokia.

if you don't find one you like, i can go get one for you and ship it.

 

Yes that would be great if you would do that for me, hell yeah to the warranty part is awesome. I bought the 8800 when it came out and cant get it fixed here because it wasnt made for USA which means I am SOL and have to send it to Singapore. Thank you Trovan I will PM you tomorrow.

Im also looking for a Nokia 8801...can u please send some more info about the store ? thanks.

 

I'm kinda in the market right now, I want one of these, but my contract is not up til next september Also I was told all the T-mobile stores in the area stopped selling them when I went in.

 

my contract is up on 1st and I want one so BAD!!!!

 

Does the 8801 work for cingular, I was told it only works for t mobile, but arnt phones compatible if they are unlocked? I am also looking for one.

 

I used my 8800 with cingular and am using my 8801 with cingular without any problems. If you are in the USA use the 8801 and you wont have any problems, they are awesome little phones.

 

I did not know this! I am still a newb when it comes to phones and stuff, I've had my i860 for more than 2 years now, works great still, but I have yet to experience the broader range of phones or look at their limitations. Sweet

 

Here's the breakdown:

There are 4 GSM frequencies 850/900/1800/1900 MHz Respectively

In the US 850 and 1900 are used, one or both depending on the area.

In Europe/Asia 900 and 1800 are used depending on the area.

The 8801 uses 850/1800/1900
The 8800 uses 900/1800/1900

So as you can see, either phone can theoretically be used on either continent, however if most of your time is spent in the US you would be better off with the 8801 and vice versa.
