To post in this thread just keep hitting attach picture and adding the string but they will be scaled down, alternatively post them in the Esato photo thread and just report here when you have posted them as in that thread they are not reduced is my understanding, looking forward to seeing them.

Although i am not a Mac user following some else advice i was given and just used the same settings as if i was converting for an iPod. I use Movavi video converter and never use manual settings just selected it and let the program do the work. I converted The Simpsons Movie using the for iPod settings and it was freaking awesome in full screen only thing was it created a 600mb file. So my advice would be just use standard iPod conversion settings and all should be excellent IMHO.

Those are excellent pictures and considering that the E90 is a Buisness smart phone they are excellent actually they are even better then some so called dedicated camera phones IMO. They also seem to be in a different league to the pictures i have seen posted by the P1 another 3.2meg Buisness smart phone camera poor old SE they are losing what little advantages they used to have at an alarming rate now.
Can't wait to see what the soon to be released N82 with Xenon flash is going to do as it really seems that Nokia have got their act together with the camera and the results showing in the devices they are now launching seems like they have learnt fast and are indeed getting the results now.

Thanks Marc. I am a bit impressed. There is a slight blue hue but this can be adjusted with the white balance. I think Nokia will fix this in the next release. I spoke to my Nokia contact today, and they said an upgrade is coming. This is like a Fort Knox secret but he dropped me a scoop. He also mentioned that Nokia did not do a recall but halted production on the E90 with the current parts stock they had regarding the sound quality issue. This was the early E90's. Mine, your (ex-E90), TheMarques, and all the rest are the newer version with different parts. In Helsinki, the E90 is sold out, however, you can get all the P1's you want. At Maifon, a local SE seller, they also sell Nokia's and the rest, but there you can not get an E90, but there were plenty P1's on the shelf.

There are just no E90 available in most places only the USA people seem to be still get them via Plemix and X1387 but the prices are actually going up. As always supply and demand dictates what the market can charge and as the demand is high and supply short it isn't really that surprising. One of the other reasons i sold mine was as i have now discovered being a UAE designated device it had no UK warranty which would of meant either having to pay for repair work or modifications or having to get someone to take it back to UAE for any warranty work or upgrades to be done which would of being very frustrating and not really a viable way of doing things IMO.
As nice looking as the P1 is it really is just the same old hardware with an extra 64mb Ram so was never going to be on my list even if i hadn't gone cold turkey on buying new devices, but as always each to his own if the P1 does what some want good luck to them just not for me and the missing features and problems reported do little to inspire confidence in SE or make me want to return to them.

@Marc,
If you change your mind for the E90. Let me know. I can try and pull a string or two and get you one from my contacts at either Nokia or Maifon.

Many thanks for your kind offer but i really am trying to be good and not buy any more devices for a while. I am eagerly awaiting the 29th August announcements especially if they announce the E61 successor with OMAP Series 3 chip. As for me the E61 really is the ideal form factor and size and the successor to which i am most eager to see.
Marc

I hear you dude.
My E60 is simply great. Just works and works and works. Boots day in and day out. No drama. Not to mention that people continue trying to buy it because it has the Arabic keyboard.

Wow. My friend in Germany said they are sold out and here in Finland they are like gold. Very hard to get.

Well it took yesasia over a week to try and find a E90 for me so yeah they seem in quite short supply.
Well I did try it out last night in my jeans and though a little drunk to remember it seemed they fitted not bad, il have to try and take a picture later (I know I keep promising.)
On to the battery life woahhhh this thing kicks as*, I has only dropped one bar and this is going into 24 hours, been somewhere with no reception for a couple of hours would suck the battery normally dry but its still holding on. I sent a few text messages emails and make a few calls and used the web for a bit and tested the gps...so gave everything a bash and yeah only one bar has dropped.
I know for a fact if it was my N95 I would have woken up this morning with a switched off phone.

I found that using 3G is a battery killer. I use it only to make VoIP calls or to really download something like software. I have even had a Fring call work over EGPRS and the quality was survivable.
