Exclamation Spica Unavailable, Buy I7500 or Wait?


Hello people,

I Finally decided to buy a Spica, but unfortunately, Its unavailable in all of the market in and around Vikas Marg, East Delhi. Only one dealer is offering it a ridiculous 15.5K and the rest are saying Samsung discontinued it.

Do you guys know anywhere I get it for less than 12K?

I was offered i7500 (Galaxy) at almost every store for 11.5K. Should I go for it instead of the Spica? I'm just worried about getting an outdated OS with a weak CPU, rest the phone is great. Will froyo come to i7500?

Also, there are rumours on the net about samsung i5800, a hybrid between i7500 and spica.

So should I buy the i7500, wait for i5800 or look around more for spica?

Thanks

i7500 hasn't even got 2.1 Eclair support, let alone Froyo.

And that rumored i5800 aka Galaxy 3 is placed tad below Spica, so going for Spica now would be a better deal, else you can wait for HTC Wildfire

Hey Manan,

Can you tell me which all shops you looked? Especially, where did u purchase? I am planning to go to Gurgaon sec 14 market tomorrow (30th May) to buy this phone. Most shops are telling me that this phone is not available.

Thnaks in advance,
Pradeep
