P810!! P810!!
I'm gonna get the prototype if I can and the actual phone
ON WARD WITH TECHNOLOGY!!
u can all stand there and gaze at ur old brick
meanwhile I'll b hvin a blast
been lookin for something to replace the P800 forever now!!
thank u soooo much 
it's been 9 months I've had the P800
I need a cool design
u guys can stick to 10second vidcam, I'll b hvin a blast with my real version 
profiles, 65k screen, and THIN
real stylus
no cheap keypad...
oh yeah... UIQ2.1
w00t
basically, everything I love is in it, and everything I hate has gone missing
my 2cents, ppl who dont want to switch to P810 r just frustrated P800 users who r pissed that they just bought a phone and there is a better one on it's way
had my P800 since december.. I'm frustrated that I've owned the same gadget that long

personally, i have absolutely no desire to upgrade to a P900. I've got my P800 working like a dream with most of the apps i need. the cam is not that important to me, nor is a 65k screen. besides, i'm sure that at some point, a P800 app would be available to record video longer than 9 sec., and SE will probably offer an upgrade to UIQ 2.1/Symbian 7.x.
the only time i would replace my beloved P800 would be when its replacement would have EDGE or UMTS capability. now that would be a real upgrade, not just some incremental improvements. |

Short Answer: UNSURE/MAYBE/PROBABLY EVENTUALLY
Long Answer: As soon as it's available I will be in the stores trying it out, but I am on contract with my P800 untill March '04 (Wow, I've only had my P800 6 months and I'm already thinking of getting rid of it) If it is REALLY worth it I can pay out the contract pretty cheaply, but I don't see that happening. Maybe by March next year the real P900 will be in the pipeline and it will be UMTS/GSM (and by that time they will have a good combined UMTS/GSM chipset so the phones won't be so huge).

when my contract ends in february i'm gauranteed a 'better' fone for free on upgrade.
if this includes the p810 i'll have one the sake of it.
if i had friends who will take the plunge into 3G though, i skip it.
As i have a P800 now, theres no point in swapping until my contract runs out.
But i'm very put off by the unremovable flip. On each of the 3 handsets i've had, the flip was removed and tucked away within the first minute of me getting my hands on it.
main reasons for getting it?
it'll be the best at the time,
and the design is certainly better than the p800 aesthetically
the internally kept stylus is a bonus but not a must
the higher res screen, again just a bonus, the p800's screen is fine
the time between release and upgrade will give me more than enough time to evaluate its true worth. as yet i'm 50/50 without any prejudice.

I will get the P800 successor but only to play with for 2 or 3 months so I know stuff about it and maybe can help people here, although probably most of it will already be similar to the operation of the P800.
I suppose if SE have done enough improvements to blow me away so that the size doesn't concern me like it did with the P800 then there is always a chance I will keep it longer!
I guess I will probably get it because I am a gadget freak and love buying and selling stuff just to play with it!

Not for me unless:
1. An external keyboard is made available for the P810 and the OS allows horizontal web viewing etc
2. Someone releases a MS Office compatible package for the P810
Realistically, like "Bogus Jimmy" I will probably wait for the real P900/P1000 that has 3G capability. |

Not inclined to. But you know how it goes. Once you have one in your hand, the itch is there. Heck, the itch is always there.

No because it offers so little to upgrade but if someone give it to me for free i cant say no loll,And because in the past i buy all the new products (not phones in computer like graphics cards etc) and spent all my money with almost no improvement at all i decide now to give my money only if something is trully worth it and offer me really good features.
And ideal upgrade for me to change my p800: all the features the p800 has and 1.3 cam ,65k screen at least(because 260.000 colors appear now in many new phones),3G video calls,duo pro so i can put my videos and have plenty of space to pou programs and mp3.And a faster prossesor.
This is what i expect for the new p900 when it arrives (not the p810)

I will because I'm a slut and I want to be the first to have a new toy, customise it and make it mine!!!!
However, I have to say that at the moment there doesn't seem to be that much that seperates the P800 and the P810/P900, to make it a truly worthwhile upgrade.

Ony If!
1. my contract is at an end and my P800 is working less than playing up.
2. the wife wants the P800.
3. I can get it cheap enough to justify it! |
