Manic,
i think your problem is not about the cable nor the phone. It seems to me that you have a port conflic.
If i were you, i will try troubleshoot by removing the tablet along with its driver, then connect the phone to that port and configure MPM to use that port. If this works, you'll know where is the problem and work it out from there.
Just my 2 cents.

Thanks everybody for your help.
The problem wasn't the port settings float - simply the cable. I've now replaced the cable with a new one, downloaded all the bits and pieces you guys have advised me to and voila!
Things appear to be working properly now although I haven't had time to experiment with the phone extensively yet.
Just to make you laugh I just received another e-mail from Ericsson telling me it won't work! |

Oh? So you're not going to sue Sony Ericsson? 
Would have loved hearing about it in the news  |

Unfortunately it won't be possible now because I have managed to achieve what I set out to do. Albeit it with "your" help and not Ericsson's (whose tech support is appalling)
I'll send off a letter telling them what I think but lets be honest their attitude is hardly one of giving a damn is it?
Again, thanks to everybody who helped me out here.

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen
Thank you for contacting Sony Ericsson Customer Care Center.
Our software does not support the Windows XP products yet neither the OS nor the
Office package.
As a matter of fact I have no information about the release date. Please inform
yourself on our web page or call us from time to time.

Hey Manic, always remember the word PEBCAK before "suing" somebody hehehe...
