A new document has been put onto the SE developer phone specifications page which compares the P900 with the P910

Support for view of HTML text in messages
Stellant viewers are removed and replaced with QuickOffice viewers for Word, Excel and PDF files The word and excel viewers will also support editing
P910 supports Outlook 2003 and Lotus Notes 6.0/6.5
At incoming call the phone will switch to the phone applicatoin regardless of previous application
At incoming call a common view will offer the most relevant alternatives (e.g. call filter, call forwarding and silent mode)
quick access to call filter in flip closed mode
initiating 2nd call, conferencing and sending DTMF tones have all been made easier
The Music player in P910 Series can also play AAC format audio encoded into .aac, .m4a and .mp4 files
The P910 browser offers a number of new features:
Narrow Layout: The internet application can now display a web page in two different ways. As you see it on your computer or reformatted to fit the width of the screen
One hand navigation using only the jog dial
hotspot (links, radio buttons, check boxes etc) navigation by rotating the jog dial to select a hotspot and pressing it in to select. also jog dial forward bring up a menu with useful commands and jogdial back to go to previous page
page scrolling can now be made faster by rotating the jog dial faster
scan text: after ensuring no hotspot is selected you press the jog dial inwards and it will take you to the part of the page with the most text
storage wizard: sounds like an enhanced file manager

It's good you can now change light intensity. It's one thing i always hated about my P800 is that it was blinding when you wake up and need to read a message on your screen in the dark

I found the fact that the internal browser now sounds very much like opera in its page reformatting capabability, and the selection of hotlinks and also the fact that they changed the bluetooth chip and microcode very interesting.
with that last one I wonder if that was just to implement the car handsfree profile or whether it was because of problems that quite a few people had

For me the most interesting thing is 64mb RAM. I guess we can expect some more sophisticated (and more RAMusing) apps now. |

One thing I miss in the P910i is the "Old fashion" ringtone. And it is not available at Sony Ericsson Fun&Download.  |

Jabe, it´s not 64MB RAM as you wrote right? C/ memory is changed from 16 to 64 MB and RAM memory increased from maybe 6-7 to 21, any missunderstanding?

Yes, there obviously was a missunderstanding. I guess I should've read the article more carefully. But on the other hand - 21mb is good, too. |

The P910 has now the Opera browser build in.
New free or trial applications bundled with the P910 include AvantGo® (offline browsing), Media Viewer (direct access to news such as the Financial Times) and Promyzer (real-time market quotes and stock trading). HP Mobile Printing Application allows messages, pictures, calendars and contacts to be printed directly to a Bluetooth-enabled HP printer. Wayfinder Mobile Navigator™ is a navigation tool included on the Software Suite that ships with the phone, which works as a turn-by-turn in-car navigation system when connected to a Bluetooth GPS receiver. The P910 also comes with the Opera browser, offering a superior Internet experience that reformats and perfectly presents the full Internet within the P910’s screen width.

your link to the press release doesn't mention built-in. It actually says "P910 also comes with the Opera browser, offering a superior Internet experience that reformats and perfectly presents the full Internet within the P910’s screen width."
the document which I linked to in the first post of this thread only mentions opera as an application supplied on the CD along with:
