Question to some guru's: Does business card scanner supports unicode and some non latin letters?
i live in Latvia and in our language there is some non ordinary letters in business cards... like â, ç, í etc... around 10 of them... |

Looks like many websites are stating a June/July 2006 launch date for the P990i.
There is still a possibility of it being delayed to Q3/4 2006 ? |

I'd say not a chance. SE would be more likely to release the phone rushed and unfinished with dodgy firmware (like most of their phones) rather than delay the release further than early summer.

Thats quite true Etaab. It will be worth the wait.
Some serious testing will be going on as we speak.

Its more than likely SE are having some problems with the new UIQ interface and getting the software they state comes with the phone working properly.
Everyone who has had their hands on the phone have all said the phone crashed ALOT, so basically all we've got to wait for is for them to make the phone more stable.
If SE delay the release into Q3 of 2006, it'll more than likely sink immediately like the Z1010 did.

2) hardware accelerated (via Philip's Nexperia PNX4008 application processor), 320 x 240 resolution MP4/3gp. Should be higher quality than W900i.
3) Yes, streaming audio is supported. Comes with A2DP BT profile and HBH-DS970 is supported.

SE does not have a stellar track record on the P series launch date as it gets delayed from previous experience.
Right now, SE is juggling a few handphone projects and I am not sure how dedicated SE is to release the P990i in Q2 2006.
All indication from regional SE offices is that they have no idea of the launch date only a vague answer of late Q2 or early Q3 2006.
There is a strong PR campaign for the P990i and some new features have been added but at the end of the day, it means nothing to the potential customers as there is only news vacuum with the launch date and the recommended retail price.
Looks like we have to wait till June/July for the answer and there is no guarantee that it will be available in that timeframe, whether we will be happy with our new P990i or waiting like a fool again for a delay to Q3/Q4. Only time will tell.

I suspect Nokia would right now be building a phone that would knock the shine outta the P990, and any further delays in the release date by SE, would be like shooting oneself in the foot.

I agree but that is unless if delayed 1 more qtr that their B2C (business to consumer) site that was proposed over OTA download contains a multitude of apps that are in high demand for their feature set. Furthermore if they bump the memory stick to 1GB & add in a HBH-DS970 to sweeten the deal, even if its for a limited time offer ... say the initial first 2 weeks. Lastly I do hope it can ship in quantity.
I'll most likely wait until the 3rd or 4th firmware release before purchasing mine, unless something catches my eye before then.
Common SE, enough of the games give us the P990i in working order fast! |

You would think that with at least 3 of SE's new phones running UIQ 3, they would concentrate pretty hard on getting it to work right, so the P990 probably won't be delayed further than Q2. If it was, then the M600 would get delayed too I would assume, and then the W950, which would leave SE without a smartphone for like a whole year! Here's to hoping it will be sooner than later (especially since it was initially supposed to be Q1 release). |
