I purchased this nokia 5800 yesterday(04th Nov., 2009) and what I saw in the advertisement that they are giving headset with it. But when I bought it from the dealer, he didn’t provide me any headset except that comes with the phone. Please suggest as whether I have to ask for it to him or not. The reason he gave me is that these headphones did not come with this colour and if they come, price for the phone increases. And he said this is the latest colour that nokia has launched for this phone.
