Nokia 5800 Sells Out on Launch in Thailand

 

The Nokia 5800 XpressMusic launched in Thailand over the weekend. After having over a million shipped, and breaking sales records in India and a couple other countries, it looks like 5800 fever shows no signs of stopping.

The phone started selling at 1.00 PM but let guess when the first one come to queue? … 5.00 AM!! He is the student that wait 5800 for a long time.

Although the air temperature is quite hot (35C) but they are willing to wait. Thanks Nokia Thailand for well management. They have food for the customer in queue all the time. If who get tired or feel hot, they also have refreshing towel for free too! Wow! However, they are nearly no need since the queue went quite fast because of hundred of cashier counters Nokia managed for customer.

The event was very big and professional. Staffs are very professional and have good knowledge on Nokia 5800.
Till now, more than three thousands Nokia 5800 have already been sold. And it’s out of stock now. (As I said, it’s for one who reserved for it only.) Wow! This is only the first day. They will be available for general users in next few days.

Gotta admit, I did not expect the 5800 to create this much of a craze !
