No, some members here have posted getting the phone (new) on ebay for around R3.5k it think.

That's a good price but it's SOOO ugly! And really badly made.
If I was you, I would wait for the second gen android phones.
Stuff.tv did a "living with it" review for the T-mobile google phone and also came to the same conclusion, that it's nice for a first try but suggest waiting for other mobile phone manufacturers to bring out a decent device for android to be loaded onto.
Personally, having played with the google phone, I still prefer my iPhone.

beauty is in the eye of the beer holder 
But its surely easier to live with than a touchscreen only device like OMNIA or iPhone it has a keyboard which is great for any smartphone, writing notes emails etc without looking. Now the iphone guys are going to scream "i dont look while typing" yes cuz you're cockeyed.
Anyways, again badly made? How would you know that? You'll need to own one for atleast 6months. Its a new gen HTC, is the diamond badly made? HTC's quality is fine its not apple with its giant-"Lazooor" manufacturing process but it should be decent.

I see the G1's touchscreen is capacitive like the iPhone which means it is a pleasure to use. I think this phone rocks. It might not be a looker but it has gotten great reviews. Once there are more 3rd party android apps this phone will be tops.

thanks guys access here limited but wont get it
are we supposed to get the g1 here in February? I emiled Leaf some time back and generally just asked if the device was supposed to come to our shores. They replied that they heard it was coming here round Feb, and according the reports Vodafone is supposed to be doing the exclusive deal, anyone know whats going on?
