Thanks Marc, wow its been a busy Friday..had family around and havent had time to test this baby to its fullest. But il surely give it a run for its money this weekend.
I Love the free Worldmate that came with it, and how the weather pops up haha thats cool. Voip works a treat especially the speaker phone is really good.
I have to say call clarity between the E90 and N95 I can only say the E90 wipes it like rag.
Well il try and do a mini review (terrible at those things) but il give it a shot if anyone wants to know anything give me a shout.

What software are you guys running?
For the most part, I am running everything I had on my N95. Fring will not install because it is not compatible but Fring says soon it will be. I am trying to hang on but IM+Skype is only $15, so I might take the plunge. iSkoot works as well but it does not support Skype type chatting on the E90.
Oh, a hint on the GPS. Use the other server: supl.nokia.com . It seems to provide a faster location fix than the one supplied with the phone.

@bondizi Argh another truphone user, good choice..I do hope they reduce the cost of the calls to some destinations but other wise brilliant service.
P.s can anyone help me setup BB Connect on this phone...never used crackberry so not sure where to start. I got a enterprise setup with bb suport but lord knows its driving me insane this evening.

@themarques: do you have a BB subscription from your phone service? in my case, I have BB internet service from T-Mobile USA, and after applying for the service, I had to login to my T-Mo account online and enable the PIN from there. Once that is done (I'm assuming you have the BBC software on the E90 already), the BB account is active and you create the email accounts online that you want to use with it. If you do that right, you will receive test messages on your phone from the service on each of the email accounts you've set up.
Does that help?

@bondizi Yeah that pretty much sums it, I guess il need to ring tmobile and get them to setup my account for BB.. I hear that BB is better at on the battery side of things as opposed to microsoft exchange. Anyway tried this or confirm this

from what i've heard/read, Exchange is a def battery killer. Not sure why, since I've never tried it.
With BB on the other hand, I've never felt the battery taking a hit. I imagine its because the phone is not actively polling the mail server every so often, and its only getting notification anytime email arrives in real time.
I dont know exactly how 'push' Exchange really is. |

Ok I think I noticed the first bug on my phone, when turnin the screen brightness up it does nothing on the main screen but on the smalller screen you can see it turns up quite bright..cr*p
I hope its not a hardware failure. I might do a soft reset any advise will be appreciated.

Ok just found the problem, it seems that if you want the screen to pump out u need to press the bulb and chr to increase the brightness on the main screen...its working know.

How do you post more than one photo at a time?
I could just post them to my blog and link to it here.
