Shooping Centres in UK

[stefe]

I shall be going to the UK for a few days, London to be exact.

Where can I find good, reputable shopping centres with good deals for a Clie?

Maybe once there, I might buy YOU and me a X'mas present! ;)

Hello
If you are going to London then Oxford Street has some electronic shops including Sony. However Tottenham Court Road which is off Oxford Street has numerous electronic outlets some of which have discount prices. I have to say however that UK high street prices for electronic goods seem to be a lot higher than in the US and mainland Europe if my experience is anything to go by (I've been to both recently). Good hunting!

Tottenham Court Road is the best place to get deals on Clie's in London, however as SHC said, prices are higher than in the US. I bought my NX73 from Procom...took 3 trips and a bit of haggling to get the deal I wanted. Always worth going in to all the stores, getting the prices from them, and also having copies of Internet prices you have been quoted...they ALWAYS like to check before they match anything!

problem is that I live in Malta, which is not mainland Europe! Ppl are still pushing the HP 1915 as the ultimate PPC, and we are lucky to have have the UX50, but look at the other sony's we have:
"We currently have three models in stock:
* Clie SL10 - Lm99
* Clie PEG-SJ30 - Lm195
* Clie NR70 - Lm299"

For the record Lm1 is 1.6 sterling and $2.6


On the other hand, I MIGHT be going to Roslyn - New York for a few days in March/April (though it is not confirmed) - hopefully after Palm OS 6 comes out!

I would have a look down Tottenham Court Road when you are in London, the first mile or so is nothing but electronic shops!, there is also a Sony shop or two on Oxford Street itself plus several large department stores which have electronic departments. On Oxford street there is also a large branch of Dixons which is the major UK high street retailer for electronic products, tends to charge full retail (£399.00 for NX73 last time I looked). They also have branches in most airports duty free.
Its also worth checking if you can avoid the local sales tax (VAT) as you are a foreign visitor, which would save you 17.5%.

if you arwe going to NYC in april, I will recommend you to wait. By that time the new clie will be out.

i think i might wait... But still, i might go window shopping, at least to see the different PDA's, basically the TJ35, TE or TT3
