Hey yall,

ok, you can buy the phone from the US then (just go on ebay) or buy it online from an US reseller. What's the problem? The phone works in Europe (GSM 1800) so if you wannit, go get it then.
And to the 'argument' before: "Many people in europe want a SE phone, but without bluetooth & infrared port."

GET THE Z600 WITH BLUETOOTH AND IR, YOU DON'T NEED TO USE THOSE FEATURES IF YOU DON'T WANT TO. STUPID.

Hi yall,

ok, just because the phone is only available in America doesn't mean you can't get it. It works in Europe (GSM 1800) and if you go on ebay or freaking order it from overseas you got it.
And...wtf???? If you don't want bluetooth but still want the phone that's got it, DON'T F****** USE IT.

@skater42
Sony Ericsson said that this phone would NOT be available in europe, but in the USA!
Many people in europe want a SE phone, but without bluetooth & infrared port. And that's the problem. T610, T630 & Z600 have bluetooth + infrared port and T230 or Z200 are bad phones cause they've no build-in cam
In europe we've too excellent SE phones, we need one with built-in VGA-cam (T610, T630 & Z600 have only CIF-quality) but without the business functions.

Just a quick reminder because I see people pulling this argument of "USA vs. Europe". You guys can use it both, and it doesn't need to be Quadband. GSM 850/1900 for the US and a slim but gracious GSM 1800 for Europe/rest of the world. So there we go, now everyone can have it.
The phone looks great i think, and the features are pretty standard, but it's good. cheers,

Hey american guy don't feel sad about not having great phones than we in europe. Lots of people try to buy a Sony Ericsson without bluetooth and infrared port. T610, T630 and Z600 have bluetooth and Z500 not. Some people want a SE phone which is good (and not shit like T230) but hasn't bluetooth.
And something else: Push to talk is a brandnew function, which we don't have in europe!!
