Fantastic Rob.Must have been awesome. 
What you running on your phone at the moment?
Was running Emminence 1.2, but I have been on FreeX10 Beta 3 for a while and loving it. Not keen on Beta 4, but will go to next one / Beta 5. Looking forward to Gingerbread when the war in that thread dies down....lol

Interesting read, Hobbs! Thanks.
It is good to acknowledge faults and problems but Nokia is in for a torrid time. Nokia has never faced such fierce competition in its existence.
Let's see how they react to this.

Finally made the jump to 2.2.1 with Cyanogen Mod007 and MIUI Theme this afternoon, extremely happy with it, the phone is just flying, boots up in seconds and the UI is so fast, busy setting it up now, just have to install Market and Applanet and get some new apps to. Will post screenshots once I'm sorted.

@Hobbs
Amazing how things change over time. The iPhone pretty much changed the game and in turn screwed up Nokia and the rest. The difference is that the other embraced Android which was at the time trying to emulate iOS. Nokia, however, was stubborn and believed Symbian could compete and look at them now. The day UIQ 'died' I knew it wasn't going to end well for Symbian. I am waiting to see the evolution of Maemo to Meego to see what it has to offer.
Nokia using another OS, if they ever do, is like saying we have failed with Symbian in particular, the jury is still out there for Meego.
@syfy000
Hi there!
I've never used my P1i for anything other than to transfer music from my laptop. If, however, that is what you are trying to do judging by your last sentence I suggest you uninstall and then install the drivers. If that doesn't help change your USB cable.
Good luck!

I use a modem for internet but if I have time I will try the P1i to see if it connects.

In your position, wanqs, you are not entitled to even little attention! Gon' tell the wife 
@Tsepz
Thanks. After thinking about it for some time now I decided it is best to have different networks in my pockets. I am porting one number next April. The question now is which between Cell C and MTN.
