The unbranded P990 has the today screen, it's worth getting the phone unbranded for!

I have used an SPV 3100 (TYTN) and P990, P990 wins every time. I use P990i one handed, couldn't realy do that with TYTN.

Flip/qwerty just works so much better than touchscreen/slide out keypad!

I have an unbranded phone. I mean that there is a lot of space not being used. And you cant add anything. Dont mean the Today Screen, I mean the Standby Screen

Hi all,
Well so far have had my TyTn for about 4hrs to play with and so far it's all good setup of a MSN and Yahoo E-Mail accounts were a doddle as was WiFi. It 's been a long time since i have had a Windows Device but so far so good and it is quick and easy. Lots of playing to do in the next few days to really get to grips with it all. But so far have added Voice command and Skype ordered a 2gb card and for me the obligatory Krusell case and i am considering a Martin Fields Screen Protector.

@Dogmann:

You used to own a P990i, right? Did you have the IEC-20 case for it? In case you still have it then put your TyTN in it. You will find that it fits perfectly!

@AbuBasim

Had a M600 and always sell the case with a phone along with all the accessories. Always get a Krusell case so when ever i come to sell my kit it is always mint. I suppose being 47 makes me a little more careful with my devices as have slowed down some what.

I have decided to get a P990i to compare against my TYTN. One question I have is:
Can you setup more than one email account on a P990i? I have 4 set up on my TYTN.

I now have my P990i here. It is better than I thought. Afetr 2 days it hasnt needed a reset yet.
The screen is brighter than my TYTN. It runs Tomtom a lot quicker than my (and a friends) tytn can. I am now seriously thinking about loosing the TYTN.

sorry to hear that. It sounds like a faulty installation of TomTom on ur TyTn.
On mine, no freezes and no lags.

What version of Tomtom are you using? I am using version 6. A friend has the same problems. There are lots of people on XDA developers with the same problem.

i am using 6 as well. The BT receiver is Holux GPSlim 236.

and one other thing. On the P990, once you open the TomTom it "eats" like * MB of your internal RAM. And no other apps can run at the same time. I tried it.
If you do not have enough RAM, the TomTom will not even start on P990.

But guess what? On the TyTn I had the TomTom and lot others. NO ISSUES. All ran smooth, not freezes and such.
