eXpansys Friday Deals: Selected deals between 11am and 4pm, 17th October 2008

So what is basically my fave online retailer Expansys has mailed me to let me know that the Sony X1 Xperia is selling at a very reasonable £85 off the normal price, between 11am-4pm on 17th October! That makes it £499.99, which as I said, is a darn fine deal :-)

I thought I remembered the N96 being about the same price from Expansys, so I’ve checked that out – and in fact there is a cashback deal here during October 11th-31st, such that effective price will be £439.99 (via cashback system post-purchase).

Either way you cut the cake, these are both stonking good deals, and Expansys deserves a pat on the back for making devices great value!

Ben Robinson

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
