Hello All of you. Its been a lobng time I have not posted anything in here, but been reading on and off this particular topic to get to know when the P990i will be out. I just could not handle it anymore and since the last 3 months have been using different phones after having been a loyal SE user for teh last 5 years.
In march my P910 started giving me crap, thus I decided to move to a Palm Treo 650. Never even think of leaving Symbia for PPC or Windows mobile or palm. Used the phone for 4 weeks and could not handle it, and went and bought out a HP Ipaq HW6615D. Windows Mobile 2003 based.
Works well, but u need to reset the phone every 2-3 days. Cant get blackberry to work. So since march, I have no mobile emails. And on those platforms they do not support Roadsync or other push email function unless u are set up on the Windows server 2003 and have Windows Mobile 5.
Guys, if its worth the wait, please wait. The P990 will be the phone to have. Dont go for any Windows based phone, after having used an SE phone. I am already regretting for buying those 2 phones worth around USD 1200.00 for both.
If SE are waiting, maybe after some testing they are finding faults or bugs that they are busy sorting and most probably awaiting developpers with the adequate supporting softwares too.
Tomorrow, I will be bidding both of those phones on www.bidorbuy.co.za and buy a second hand P910 in teh meantime.
But well done on having made this topic so long. which means there are thousands if not ten thousands of SE users awaiting to get their hands on the P990i.
Tito

Yep I first heard it was the Wi Fi from a source in Nokia Finland, I have also heard its the OS that is totaly bug ridden, and now to top it all, Vodafone's UK stores have been told, and are now telling those who enquire after the P990 that "its business card reader function does not work" and SE will not release the phone until it works with all its functions as marketed! I was told yesterday that it will be August before Vodafone Stores are due to get "another update" on the device! So as for a July release Nahh not on your Nelly!!!!
I have owned the ... T68i T610, P800, P900, P910, P990, W950, P1, W960 But SE have now totally lost the plot. |

I thought about it as well but I currently have 597 contactsmost with three or more numbers, email addresses, ( not including Tasks Caldendar, Word Docs Excell Spreads Etc) notes etc and I dont think the Nokia will handle it. Also the more I think about not being able to write my notes, texts, Appointments etc and having to go back to s****y little keyboards the less likley I am to change from the P series BUT mine is falling to bits and I cannot wait much longer!!!!!!

What makes you think the N80 won't handle that many contacts ? I have about 350 contacts so far and no problems what so ever. (althou most are email addresses) I will buy the P990i tomorrow if it will be as stable as the N80 (and available) Unfortunately neither nor :( Greetings from South Africa. Mario

@etaab
I agree with you. This is the end for the P990 now. I'm getting a K800 to replace my W810, but what about a P990 replacement (if that makes sense considering it isnt even out! lol). Oh well, unlucky

I'm confused as the SE UK Eshop has put an August launch date for the P990i but there is not yet an official word that it will be delayed to Q3 from Sony Ericsson press room.

Maybe Sony Ericsson will announce it in tomorrow's dog and pony exhibition at the CommunicAsia 2006, Singapore.
I cannot believe that we have to see more photos and videos in the next dog and pony exhibition between now and August. Please, no more photos of the P990i in your hands at the CommunicAsia exhibition.
A few weeks ago we were all excited because of a P990i box. |

same store has July release for M600...has you know, there are already several esato member´s with M600´s, so what do you make of it???
wario, i simply remembered you the n93 can´t be compared with the P990 right from the start, because it doesn´t have a touch screen, and for me, like many, a smartphone isn´t complete without it

So guys, question.. Since I really can't wait for P990 any more and don't want to switch to non-SE, what are the differences between m600 and p990?
- m600 doesn't have camera
- m600 lacks WiFi
These are the only 2 things I found. Am I missing anything else? Seem to be the same platforms minus the 2 attributes, correct? Thx!

”P990 kommer i mitten av juli”
2006-06-19 17:08
Att Sony Ericssons P990 inte skulle börja levereras under andra kvartalet har länge varit uppenbart trots Sony Ericssons påståenden om motsatsen. Nu har man dock även meddelat återförsäljarna om förseningen.
En välplacerad källa i branschen uppger för mobil.se att Sony Ericsson meddelat återförsäljare att vecka 28 eller vecka 29 är den tidpunkt då de kan vänta sig de första leveranserna av P990. Det betyder att den kommer börja säljas någon gång i mitten av juli.
Troligen blir det bara små volymer som levereras de första veckorna. Enligt källan är det först under augusti som man kan vänta sig större leveranser som kan möta den stora efterfrågan som finns på P990.
Sony Ericssons officiella hållning är dock fortfarande att P990 kommer att börja levereras under juni.
- Den kommer att komma andra kvartalet, säger Per Alksten på Sony Ericsson.
-----------------------------------------------
Basically, the p990 has been confirmed by SE to come in mid July.
If you want me to translate it all, ask.

Systran is your friend
P990 comes in the middle of July”
2006-06-19 17:08
That Sony Ericsson's P990 willed not begin to be delivered during other quarter has long been clear despite Sony Ericsson's assertions about the contrast. Now, one has however also the announced dealers about the delay.
A välplacerad source in the sector states for mobil.se that Sony Ericsson announced dealers that week 28 or week 29 is that time then the can to wait themselves the first deliveries of P990. The means that the comes to begin to be sold some time in the middle of July.
Probably becomes the only small volumes that to be delivered the first weeks. According to the source, the first is during August that one can wait itself bigger deliveries that can to meet that big demand that exists on P990.
Sony Ericsson's official attitude is however still that P990 will begin to be delivered during June.
- the will come other quarter, says per Alksten on Sony Ericsson.
