This reminds me of the botched Palm Pre launch. Needing good sales they go and lock themselves to O2.
I am really interested in getting the Lumia 920, but am not going to pay over the odds for it or change my network.
I telephoned MobiCity to query the price.
They advised that they have sourced it in Germany.
The german sim free price has been quoted as 599 Euros.
The 920 looks great, but I bought a 800 in the first month and had to put up with little software bugs while watching the price drop all year long.
Dont get me wrong I love my 800 bit I will not make that mistake of being the early worm, again.... So I am going to wait until the January sale.
The Verge review is in, overall ranking pulled down by Microsoft's app store.

I love reviews from the verge. Always really detailed and usually spot on data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
Weight doesn't concern me , I actually like a bit of weight perfect example is going from a PS3 sixasis to a PS3 duel shock 3, not sure what colour to go with yet black is safe but yet common, yellow I can see being popular
Now that is how a review should look like, been looking at a few of the early reviews and they were a little dodgy and seemed to contradict each other.
When is the 920 coming out?
It's not very clear, it's officially out except no one seems to have stock. I'd say handsets will start appearing within the next two weeks.
