Surprise surprise ... Nokia joined the profiteering bandwagon !!!

I was half way eating Yum-Cha ... chewing on a piece of chicken feet to be exact !

Nokia shop called ... "Your E90 is here" !

Woohoo ! ... I quickly asked the lady with a nice voice to reserve me a unit.

And then ... she said ... "You know what the price is don't you ?"

hmm ... bells started ringing ... innocently i said "10.9 Mil (that's US$1200)"

Nice lady (now sounding more witch-like) said "Sorry that was the launch price ... it is now 15 Mil (US$1650 !!! 37.5% mark up !!!)"

Enuff said ... on to the next chicken feet.
