BQS EF81 - Anyone got one?

Am due to upgrade now and am thinking about the EF81. I currently use a k750 and love it but would like a 3g phone and feel like the ef81 might be pretty nice. Anyone got one or know when they will be available on O2 in the UK?

Any experiences of this phone would be gladly received...

Thanks!

Haven't got one.............bit OT but had to say that I've seen the advert on TV with Ronaldo and I think it's a pretty cool advert.

I never liked Ericcson mobile phones, didn't like Sony either. Think Sony Ericsson phones are great though. Hopefully BenQ-Siemens will turn out the same.

Cheers, anyone any idea on release dates in the UK? I am in 2 minds about what to go for here. Will wait on 1 of my contracts for the N93 although the battery life worries me. I was dead set on the n80 and then the negative battery life has put me off. Am thinking also about an n70 but feel it is a backward step.

Any more info on th EF81 would be excellent. I know O2 had it as a "coming soon" phone for a while but i has disappeared from their site now. CPW also list it as available in May. Fingers crossed!

Not seeing it on there at all. Anybody seen any sample camera pics from the EF81 yet? Would be keen to see if it is going to be a big difference compared to my K750. Imagine it will be nowhere near as good though.

Phone looks really good but I don't know much about the UI. Also you say it has K750 specs but I haven't seen any sample pics yet to support this and would be keen to do so before getting my hands on one.

Love the deisgn though.

Thanks Shaheen. Not that strong a review though. Mainly that it says the phone does most things well but nothing exceptional. Still looks lush!
