Anyone pony up and get this? What was the damage? What kind of plan did you get?

The 1st haptic was like 900,000w when it came out.

I would imagine haptic 2 is the same.

Frankly I think haptic sounds like something one catches when not to careful on a weekend night out.

Instead of catching the clap you catch the hap. Razz

Actually, Haptic refers to technology which interfaces to the user via the sense of touch by applying forces, vibrations and/or motions to the user. Thanks Wiki.

I think the guy at the store was saying around 600K, but maybe it was a special or something. I'll probably get it after my next paycheck, a little gift for myself.

Is there any way to copy your own mp3s onto it? I was looking at one yesterday and it looked like the only way to get music was from Melon.

It was either KTF or LG that had the Haptic 1 for around 400,000w with contract (even cheaper with other incentives).

SK Telecom was the only one that had the phoen for 850,000w. Maybe they'll knock off 10-20% depending on your TWorld Membership status (gold, silver, VIP).


Trust me, I asked around SK Telecom stores from GImpo, to Gangnam, to Gunja, to Dongdaemun, to Mokdong. All the SK Telecom stores said the same thing.

My Korean gf went looking for a new phone today and she called SK. She said the Haptic 2 was 300,000W if she signed a 2 year contract.

I'm used to buying my phones unlocked in sketchy places back home. Any equivalents here in Korea?

This version of the Haptic 2 is supposed to have Windows Mobile with Windows Media Player on it that will play all files your WMP will play on your computer.
