I find the P990 pretty fast, very stable and incredibly nice to use actually. I doubt very much I'll be returning\\selling mine anytime soon

1.The Battery Performance So Far? As expected

2. The Camera Performance So Far? Exceeded Expectations. I went to a shop and printed the pixs. You could never tell they are made with a 2MP camera!!!!! And how about the Video recording with 3o fps? Perfect.

3. The QWERTY keyboard Performance So Far? OK. I would have settled for a larger screen

4. The Software & Connectivity Performance So Far? Except the bugs, it is better than any other SE phone. It DOES have Wifi, It DOES have better calendar, It does have more out of the box apps (RSS, Desktop, Scanner), it DOES connect in the order specified (GR8T feature), it DOES have RADIO, it DOES have OPERA, it DOES support secured POP3 email access (like GMAIL) and on and on ...


Comments:
Let me ask whom ever complains: When P800 was out, how many out of the box 3rd party apps were on the market? It all culminated with the P910i, with the same UIQ (I totally agree, P910 is a great phone), but all the developers had all the time in the world to develop apps. On the P990, you GET some out of the box functions never implemented before.
I have on my P900 the Handy day PRO, but it took them so many tries to get it right. It is version 1.51. Hello!!! I have Magic Profiles Pro, and again how many tries it took them to get it right and on the market?! I agree, P990i could be better, but for what I get now, I love it. I am patient. I know we will get the apps we want. That is what happens with anything new. Look at Apple. They have such a great product, but not that many 3rd party apps? Now see, Windows has MANY apps, but again how many bugs?!? Every week there is a software update. And we don't complain. We just update the software. And how many years in the works was XP? And how many years XP has been on the market? 5 or 6? Hello people.
One that has this phone will always be picky. that is why one got he phone. That having said, one will never like what one gets. It will NEVER be 100%.

I echo ares's words.

I am a mobile phone fanatic but there is nothing out there at the moment that would get me to part with P990.

The camera is unbelievable for a 2MP, as is the sound reproduction through the HBH-SD970's.

One aspect that has not been mentioned often but is extremely important, is the call sound quality. The best i have expereinced on a phone.

Memory management slightly improved but a long way from being acceptable for the application potential the phone offers.
