The Ericsson R290 Satellite phone that my wife ordered purchased on E-bay arrived today. No user manual!
Can anyone give me a URL from where I can download a manual?

G'day Rosscoe, the web address for the manual is www.EricssonR290.com. It's 70 odd pages and worth downloading the lot. You should have received the address in the box the phone came in

G'day Brad, sorry to hear that yours hasn't arrived yet. I'd start to make some inquiries NOW, it's been far to long- get in contact with eBay. Check your bank account statements. Did you buy it from "EI" on eBay or someone else??, he has a good record with them. Check everything

ps let me know I think I've got a phone # for him, I'll dig it up from old emails. send me message, are you a site member?

Yes, from"EI" on eBay.
I have contacted him and his reply:

average 7-10 days to aus
if customs stop it then 3 weeks
julian

..so I'll wait a little yet.
I'm fairly confident of the security of paying by credit card - I'm more thinking now that customs have snared it and I'll cop some GST.
Thanks for your speedy response.
Regards,
Brad.

I ordered my phone from e-bay and received e-mail verification of the order the next day, it arrived by post within 1 week. I hope yours hasn't gone astray.

Regards,
Lynn

G'day all, well all that, like me, have purchased the EricssonR290. I hope you have all been looking at the threads concerned with the 'phone' and it's connection deals. I spent a lot of time on the phone and I have been assured that there will be better connection deals coming up. These deals are to be available around the middle of April(that's what I was told by the connections officer,Anna).
So hang a while 'cause as soon as I know, you'll know'.
I'm just hoping I wasn't spun a yarn, I like to face people in these sort of negotiations.
