What is going on with Benq Siemens, I waited for the EF81, that never materialised & now I am waiting for the SL91.

They will never sell phones they advertise if they are never available. I have always had a Siemens phone & have been more than happy with them, I need to replace the handset I have, because I have had it for over 4 years & it is getting a little worn now, however I am a little tired of waiting for new products that are never available. If I am unable to buy this product in November, then it's Bye Bye Siemens, as far as I am concerned. I will buy a phone from an alternative manufacturer, who advertises phones that will actually be on the market. I just wish that Benq Siemens were as honest & reliable as their customers have been over the years, WAKE UP, WE ARE TIRED OF WAITING FOR PRODUCTS THAT NEVER BECOME AVAILABLE BENQ SIEMENS.

Sounds like a brilliant phone, design looks very good, I WANT ONE! But now I've heard that BenQ-Siemens will withdraw them, I've got a question: Why would you want to withdraw such a brilliant phone? Will try to find someone who sells it, hopefully get it for birthday or Christmas! (I can't rate usability because I don't have one!)

This phone looks very nice & it has all the features that I need. Well, if it had WLAN it'd be perfect. I've been using Siemens phones for awhile & I think they are much better than Nokia's & Sony-Ericsson ones. Siemens has a great operation system. I hope the price of SL91 is going to be reasonable.

I think this phone is awesome, its great style an crisp look makes me wanna go bother BenQ-Siemens to give me one for free, it's got that touch sensitive feature only bettered by BenQ-Siemens, A slick smooth sliding phone that'll have guys like me drooling. As for that stand you get with it, it just adds to the effect, a beautiful phone with a stand that will make it stand out, I cant wait for the SL91 to get released, Just hope I don't have to wait to long...

Benq Siemens SL91 will at the top of my Christmas list. It is a superb looking phone & will be on sale in the United Kingdom ready for Christmas, hooray. A 3G phone & 3.2 MP camera, I love it & the light effects, navigation, stand & sleek slide action which looks wafer thin are what sell it. Hurry up Christmas, well Summer is over.

Terrific looking phone but not so sure about having a stand for it. I thought the whole idea of having a mobile was to be mobile & the stand may look sleek but you still have to find somewhere to store it, home, office, hotel room, which one? Like the phone & the features will give Sony Ericsson K800i & LG Chocolate a bit of heavy competition but the stand is pointless.
