Deb – in the profile setup, you have to have “warning tones” set to “on” to be alerted about low battery. However, about 10 seconds after the tone, the phone will shut off. Also, this means that the startup and shut down tones will also be activated.

Don’t care for the Nokia N75, had it 2 months, battery goes dead with no sound notification, if anyone knows how to turn on the sound notification to alert when battery is low, would appreciate the info. Other than that, guess it’s ok.

I got 2 Nokia N75s from cingular (AT&T) yesterday. Opened one, amazed to see the cute phone. It has lots of features.

The lg500 doesn’t have voice dial (which is a must for me).

Have you looked at the E62, E61, or E61i? All three are nokia pda’s with qwerty. The E61 = E62, but E61 adds wifi and wcdma. E61i adds a 2mp camera. Only the E62 is available now, but the others are “expected soon”.

I demo’d this phone at the Beverly Center in LA the other day. It is a great piece of equipment, but seriously, I almost felt it wasnt’t that much better than the LG500. I am a die-hard Nokia fan and I am hoping for Nokia to come out with a better model to compete with Moto Q and Blackjack. I kinda want Querty…the only downside to the N75…no Querty.

No point ordering from Amazon if Best Buy is offering it for $199. Unless you think getting it a few days sooner is worth your $164.

I just went to Amazon.com and looked at the Cingular phones. You can buy it starting today from them for $363.99.

My girlfriend works for a Cingular agent and they say the phone will be in before the end of April. Their Cingular represenitive said the phone didn’t come out sooner due to problems with the screen.

The following website says it will be in stock 4/15/07.. is this just an approximation.. i.e. average /middle of April?/? or a real date?

Regarding the Release date… nope… I was just thankful to get what I got… since BestBuy has it on their website.. I imagine soon..

I am more interested in learning of the differences between the two menu systems… (the one at Bestbuy, and the one in retail stores later…)

Jay — Fri, 06 Apr 2007 02:41:24 +0000

Mike,

Thanks for the info!

Did you here anything different on the release date?

By: MikeM

MikeM — Wed, 04 Apr 2007 17:48:59 +0000

Sorry one more note… In the US the rebate form lists the rebate as 50.00

By: MikeM

MikeM — Wed, 04 Apr 2007 17:48:33 +0000

Jay –

you can download the rebate form from cingular’s website (as they use 1 rebate form for all phones in 1 quarter.

You can also get a benchmark for the pricing from bestbuy

go to bestbuy–>cellular phones–>browse phones–>select Nokia as device manufacturer and it will be the last on the list.

Thanks!

I stopped in at the local Cingular store and asked about the Nokia N75. The sales person’s response on the delay of the phone was blamed on the merger of ATT and Cingular. He also said that the phone is on the price sheet ($260, with a $60 rebate) for upcoming releases. Release date no later then May. Hopefully it’s true. It’s a perfect phone to upgrade to!

Here is the response that I got from a
Cingular product manager.

The version for retail and agents will be released in late April/early May timeframe. There is a national retail version that is hitting soon in Best Buy’s, the version we (Cingular Stores) get will have an updated easier to use menu system.

I gave up waiting for the n75 and bought a new phone…i’m sure now that i’ve made that leap, the n75 should come out this week
either way, i hope the phone is all we’ve all been expecting it to be for those of you who wait…good luck!

By: B. Meadows

B. Meadows — Tue, 27 Mar 2007 02:58:54 +0000

cinnamngirl, I guess I could take one off of your hands….just let me know if you still have a few left…no charge to someone special like me right?!?

what if i told you i had my hands on a few of these babies and don’t know what to do with them? i didn’t realize they were such a hot item. they’ve been sitting around for a month now. a “friend” works at nokia and has been waiting for the release date to get rid of. what are these pricing at?

Have you any further word as to when or if the Nokia N75 will come out or its possible price. Talking to any Cingular office and it is like trying to talk to a politician, they make no sense.

By: raul

raul — Thu, 15 Mar 2007 16:31:40 +0000

I have an inside connection at Nokia and what the word is on the inside is that the phone passed Cingulars testing with flying colors, but it is now stuck in Cingular’s legal quagmire negotiating pricing and purchase quantities with Nokia. Its has been “any day” since November. I’ll believe it when I see it!!

I saw the Nokia N75 on eBay. It doesn’t seem as if there is a Symbian OS on the device. What gives?

There is a N75 for sale on Ebay! (March 9th)

This phone is already old news…Where’s the real new technology?
