First, the delays were sad.
Then, the delays were so sad that they were funny.
Now, the delays are just funny.
Soon, the delays will be so funny that they are sad.  |

This is getting to the point where if the P990i doesnt meet its projected sales estimates or beat them 2 fold in its 1st qtr of release the head of their marketing team for the SYmbian line should be fired without severance pay or references. He/She obviously didnt research the market; and with toying with us like this is rediculous.
HTC Models, are on their 4th generation to support WiFi, Nokia has N80/N92 coming/N93coming/E61/E60/E70 ALL with WiFi; and SE currently has NONE! nothing in the market available Now, or like Yesterday.
I swear SE I think its better to piss us all off by releasing the P990 before months end and within 2 months have us be ticked because a quadband or 1900/850Mhz HSDPA/UMTS model launches thats slightly thinner and with a better camera or with WiFi 802.11B/G support. i'd rather that kind of toying around than having no SE choice for WiFi enabled phone at all.
SE your great but dont mess with our hearts any longer. ppl like aboveconnection and others that have a p990i could be MAIMED for being caught in public with 1 before release. Like a Dog in heat I want the P990i NOW. I'm still buying the w810i in 3 weeks but I want the P990i! |

I've Been waiting for 8 months for the p990i, but I've jumped ship and have ordered the HTC TYTN (Vodafones equivalent V1605) which I will have in the next 24 hours, 12 month contract which I can cancel after 10, so if the p990i's successor is around next May I might get it, but with what the TYtN's got I might not.
I know shipping date for the p990i is suppose to be August but I have heard this for the last 8 months, and have got fed up. |

Does anyone here know if the production line has started yet ? I have 4buddies on IM but they work for nokia (hungary and finland) thats why I am fairly accurate with nokia releases. Unfortunately I don't know anyone working for Se. Obviously, when the production line has not started then no phones can be delivered. I thought Arez knew somethink first hand when he said -it will go on sale before the end of the month and probably before the end of this week- but it looks like he was doing what most people do. 'guessing'. For what is it worth Nokia market analyst, Don Slatter, don't expect to see this model on sale till Aug. and customer saturation by sept. Make what you want of it. Software stability is the main reason for the delays and not competing SE products. Greetings from South Africa. Mario :-)

What I think is the worst is that SE does not communicate anything. I mean there are a lot of people around that are willing to spend money for SE phones. To keep those pleased SE is always fast in throwing the hook at them by announcing new phones and keep them warm by their side. Maybe it's time for SE to read this fabulous forum and learn how upset their customers really are. I just wish that other manufacturers would make a phone with the specs of the P990.
However... due to a lack of alternatives (must be symbian for me!) all we can do is wait and hope that SE will finish their work sometime... |

I think SE reads this forum, but really don’t care. Here are a couple of hundred enthusiasts, but the phone will sell in hundreds of thousands when it finally hit the market. Knowing all the software problems they had with the M600, they will wait until they have the software for this phone working before they let the P990 leave the factories. The P990 are of course produced already, and are know sitting on the shelves waiting for a final go after implementing the latest OS. The P990 OS is based on the same OS as the M600, and that phone have already had 3 firmware updates. The last one only a couple of days old. Before the latest firmware, they couldn’t even use it for IMAP.
