Question of the Day: What's the most interesting small town you've visited in South Africa?
Nokia N80?
- Thread starter R_KZN
- Start date
MTN has got it free on some contracts now. So you might be able to go have a look at it at one of their outlets. Im planning on getting the N80 when my upgrade is due mid august. Maybe i get lucky and vodacom will have it available by then.

I received mine on a MTN contract a while ago and just love it ...R_KZN said:
Constantia Village (CT) say that they should have stock today.
I was keen, but the R2900 outlay (Weekend contract) is a little bit on the silly side for me (I mean, it's not like it won't be obsolete in 2 years). There is also a slight question mark regarding firmware and stability . . .
The E61 seems to have everything that I'm after, at a much better price (albeit slightly more bulky).

Yup, my nephew just phoned me, his wife is due for an upgrade and at just under R2000 for the N80 on her contract (not a weekender) she is cancelling Vodacom and going to get a new MTN contract and get the N80 free or pay in R299 depending on the contract.

Ye, heard the same thing this morning!!
Fracking crazy, R2000 to pay in on contract
Go for the Talk500 and then you ONLY have to pay R1400
Yet, the 6280 they will give for free
WTF!!

Eish I just found a special in my old emails. It was free on a R159 / month Mycall 100 contract. They only had 10 units though and it was 3 weeks ago 
Brilliant Phone N80
I got that contract from MTN, MyCall 100 @R159,00 per month and once off
R588.00,three weeks ago,then I thought that was expensive, but now its madness. Brilliant phone, I am currently using the phone as my modem to go online.

R588
My email says R136.80 Simcost and R99.00 connection fee

The R588 was not sim and connection fees, because I am a MTN subcriber.
It was for downgrading from PRO120 to Mycall 100.I was on pre paid and I wanted it on mycall 100 and not pro call 120, that is why I had to pay the R588. On pro call 120, it was free @ 285 per month contract.go well

Ah nice phone, but no WLAN / Wi-Fi ,Infrared port and HSCSD.nice battery life, Standard battery, Li-Ion 1100 mAh (BP-6M ) better than the N80.It will be your new Christmas box, hope it's on the market in SA by then.
