Electrozan is offering Nexus One at premium price of KD 229 which is KD 57 over one ordered and delivered to your door in Kuwait from US at KD172. Incase you are planning to buy one MAKE SURE it is not rooted to install Arabic Fonts because that will void warranty on your Nexus One.

I ordered Nexus One last week, Feb 3rd to be precise, and it reached my mailbox on Feb 5th in US. I called up UShopWeShip to check on the status of my shipment, as their site was not showing any updates on the delivery. Unfortunately it was Friday and UShopWeShip offices are closed on Friday, [...]

Seems some retailers are getting cloned phones from China and passing it off as originals in Kuwait. I saw one example in InfoConnect where one of the shops was openly advertising iPhone 3GS for KD 45 [ofcourse a fake one]. What planet do you think we come from…?! The entire mobile market was offloading iPhones [...]

A major update to the Android OS of Nexus One has enabled multi-touch support. Other updates are to the firmware. BTW many of you in Kuwait have stated that you still cant order Google Phone as Google is blocking the site. Thats strange as somehow I can get through to Google’s site. Could be that [...]

Just checked Google’s Nexus 1 website, and it seems Google has removed restrictions for ordering the phone from outside US. Now you can order it from Kuwait. Only catch is that the shipping address has to be in US, UK,Singapore, Hong Kong. I already have mailboxes from Aramex and UShopWeShip so I guess I will [...]

Rumours are doing rounds that much awaited Google phone is going to hit the markets on Jan 5th. The Nexus 1 model is expected to turn the mobile phone market upside-down.

The specs are great and rival the latest iPhone 3GS specs blow by blow. Based on Linux OS and supporting all the fancy gimmicks of [...]

It seems a latest series of updates from Etisalat UAE to BlackBerry subscriber devices is riddled with spyware. Reverse engineering on the updates found out that the spyware is snooping on the messages sent from the devices and storing them on Etisalat servers. This is serious issue and so far no one from Etisalat, BlackBerry [...]

iPhone is now touted at KD 249 [AlGhanim stores] and Nokia N97 is KD 249 – 250 [Alghanim Stores and Nokia showrooms]. Is it worth it..maybe in 6 months when both will dip to KD 150 or less levels. And btw if you are planning to buy iPhone 3G from Alghanim…just DONT because they are [...]

Following is the latest pricing format from Apple UK where iPhone 3G-S is available on pre-paid connection:
iPhone 3G-S 16 Gb – £440.40 = KD 210
iPhone 3G-S 32 Gb – £538.00 = KD 255
*Price above includes VAT
Looking at this I wouldnt be surprised if Kuwait retailers are gonna charge anything under KD 250+ with markups and [...]
