I will get this one in a weeks time. Apparently, black ones have not yet shipped. The best price I could get on this was QAR 1600 (INR 20,000) eventhough it's marked at QAR 1900 (up here in the mid-east bargaining is a rule and not an exception, and applies even to authorised SE showrooms, not just resellers). It's not selling well here due to lack of arabic language support (that's what a saleswoman told me) and no camera. M2 cards are expensive (QAR 350 for 512 Megs)
Will post opinions once I get this. Meanwhile, here's an excellent review -
