Try your local travel agent - they may be able to arrange the trip for you -
to 6 months into the future.

Indeed, It seems to be a trait that the handsets are released in Finland, at
around about the advertised time, but then take another six months to get
anywhere else. it means Nokia can officially make the release date, but
still be behind on production and distribution. not to mention the fact that
even at the end of that six months, the product still isn't finished.
doesn't stop them selling it though.
I'm not normally this pessimistic. honestly. it's just annoying that every
year, my upgrade date gets pushed back a couple of months, so a phone that
is outdated 6 months normally has to last me 14, while I wait for the
upgrade - often while the phone is on release elsewhere.
It doesn't help that most UK providers automatically tack on 3 months after
nokia offer it for sale, while they 'test it'. of course it doesn't actually
work even when it is released (8310 'shudder') but they apparently have to
test it's compatibility with their network.
Rant mode off. (wake on idiot detection active)

Re: Nokia 6600 - Where can you get one?
Guys, I only hope this phone becomes available by Christmas. It would make a
nice present to... myself!
>:-)
PS. I was hoping to buy 6220 but it already seems old in respect to this
Java-2-supporting babe. The only thing I hate about Nokia and electronics
manufacturers in general are these "paper releases"... :-(

it might be - released to the providers. then they will take their time.
they only need to send out one to claim release - then they can be waiting
for production.
