Sony Ericsson UIQ3 shipping dates?

For all those wondering what's happened to Sony Ericsson's UIQ 3 smartphones, note that the M600i has been spotted in the wild (even been sold on eBay already) and is shipping in many markets in the next month. Clever money on the P990i says August and on the W950i says September. Comments (and other sightings) welcome!

Read on in the full article.

As usual, my local dealer with the advance pricing already say the P990i will be out soon and less than USD 500. They had never been wrong with the advance pricing or release dates, but this time this price is just too low to be believable.

(They had been right about the E60/E61 price of USD 400, and 6708 price of USD 450.)

I spoke to Vodafone UK yesterday and they cited August 21 as the day they expect it. They said they're NOT taking advance orders and would only entertain calls about it after 14th August.

I'm sooo not sure whether to wait, or go for a different phone. Perhaps I'm just being impetuous?
