Your laptop beats the sh!t out of mine then, mine doesn't even last half and hour 
My W900i lasted me a whole day in NYC shooting a couple of hours of video and around 260 pics. This is when you need your phone to last more than a few hours.
If all phone manufacturers thought people were happy to let their phones last no more than a day, just think how good it would be for them.

I think we need to invest in new pieces of crap.
The iPhone menus are stunning though but like someone said the battery may be a problem. We'll have to wait till the first reviews come out but I applaud Apple for taking mobiles in a new direction.

p1 is better but wy se doesnot give us gps its shame
Is that the best you can come up with? Better in what ways? It is using 4 year old technology and still screwed up.
Anyway, as or the battery life in the N95, has anyone considered that it is only a 950 mAh battery? The E61/E61i is 1500 mAh, with various other sizes thrown in in various phones. I am lucky to get almost 4 hours out of my 17 inch MacBook Pro. My dedicated Garmin GPSmap 60 CSx will give me only 12 hours straight. I can get about 36 to 40 hours out of my N95 simply by killing unnecessary processes, or not amazing your friends with the cool GPS thingie. People complain and complain and complain about the battery life but for the most part it is not much worse than any other phone with a comparable size battery. As for build quality, take a quick look at the M600i. A thin piece of crap. It is an electronic dust bowl. I can't remember one SE phone that did not have the ability to capture any and all dust thrown its way.
The bottom line is, you pay your money, you take your chances. Nokia has it problems but at least you can count on Nokia to fix them within a year as opposed to the still thriving k800/k790 threads, still thriving P-series threads, and the hope to quickly die M600i threads.

thanks for all the posts...basically i started this thread because of a few things. my p910 needs to be replaced soon and i've been holding out on the replacement coz i am not sure if i'm sticking to p series (having owned p800 and p910 and previous SE phones before that) or wait for p1i or iphone. i believe the n95 is out of the list mainly because of preference (i got my fiance an n80 a couple months back, and i felt my over a year old p910 was better and i wasn't used to nokia interface)....so this leaves me with iphone, p1i and p990.....and i have a bit of a tight budget, around $500 to spare for a new phone....so granting these are the circumstances, which would you pick if you were me? wait out or go and buy the p990?

@bangsters
Well recent reports of the P990i with the newest fw are very encouraging with many confirming that the phone has been 'transformed', so it might be worth trying that out for a week.
Plus, they are going for a song at the moment so very small initial outlay too.
The P1i will be out soon but I think it will be a bit pricey, for a few months anyway.

true - will definitely "inspire" other manufacturers to come up with some innovations (though i think that htc touch thingy is somewhat overhyped - spb shell/plus does almoest the sane with any wm... ).
though a phone without any kind of keypad, would probably make me wanna carry an emergency handset?

I would go for P1, because what's the purpose of having all that stuff when you have to charge your battery every day. P1 also has a lot to offer and it's thinner and lighter than P990i. But again that's just my opinion.
p.s. - I had a chance to play with N95 and it really feels cheap, maybe because of that plastic housing. We'll see what iPhone will be like, it's hard to say now from this perspective.

Technologically wise, the P1 is a 4 year old phone. It is old SE technology in a slim wrapper. There is nothing new about this phone at all.

Well, now N95 is out of ur list and u want to choose between iPhone, P990 and P1. The iPhone is really innovative and different but it has its own drawbacks. I wont list them. And as ur a P-Series user, u will definitely love P990. Its a very good all rounder and is available at a very low price too. So if ur on a budget the P990 is the best choice for u. But if in any case u can wait and spend more money then no phone other than P1 can make u happy. 6 times the available RAM than P990, compact size, better battery life and better camera.
Believe me, u won't be dissappointed with P1 though P990's low RAM may dissappoint u a bit, but not much. .)

@sapporobaby - I know that P1 can’t beat N95, but N95’s low point is it's battery, that's why i said I would go for P1.

try to open alot of apps with the n95, or alot of webpages (and the P990 also btw)...then you try it with a P1...and see if it can´t beat the N95 in anything
still, i think we should wait this:

P1 for me. I have always been SE fan and Nokia isn't for me. I hold N95 and it feels cheap and big. UIQ3 all the way.
