God knows I really want a P990 but I am worried about the faults and the fact that a new M or P series will come out soon :'(

Yes but the battery is also Bst-33 only. I don't know why they did not put the Bst-34. I've got the phone for 2 days already its seems to work fine with me with the help of swiss manager. I already try the wifi and its great it works in the starbucks. Guys which is better to used a high speed pro duo or the pro duo only?? The sounds is kinda low compare to my p910i but the OS is great on how it works i really love the phone but its sometimes restart when using the media player and texting. |

I dont advice you to buy it. It s still unstable... am selling mine and getting back my p910 for a while until everything gets fine. Plus am not being able to use my GPRS cos my network is still 2.5G they'll update it in november and then Id be able to receive GPRS connections on my P990. |

@ spine
i also thought that SE to supply bst-34 is very slim - im sure many will complain to SE coz they got their device on high bucks with minimum configured hardware (standardization issue).
@ rheetyard
i see little improvement currently. i just upgraded my fw last night.
with spine6 help i manage to get a good theme and installed swiss manager. However no obvious different currently from my end. i run the swiss, I tested by opening word, cut and paste text to sms then send. After sending i check the application in the background. Word is gone.
2nd attemp same routine, after sending sms the word is in the background but the swiss is gone 
Wifi the ofc free wife is close. PITY me Lol but will check that in the next occasion in my colleagues flat.
I will check the email synch today.
Nevertheless the bugs are ok in a regular symbian phones. I can't speak of the previous Pseries however based on previous phone SX1 and N70 - these are normal when we (users) are trying the cp run the PC routines. LOL.
@ Amnesia.
I understand your concern on the bugs and your stand of not getting a unit yet. From my end i was pressed to buy as my N70 was stolen and i need an upgraded smart phone with touch screen. I thought of getting the like of i-mate however the flashy SE Pseries caught my attention and seeing the product support and flashy BT stereo ... makes me want it more.
Expensive yeah. But the kid need to spend some bucks to enjoy!
Happy Ramadan to all.

if you guys want a new phone I highly recommend the tytn, I got both the p990 and tytn and stuck with the tytn and got rid of the p990, the gap in speed, issues as well as available content is huge, I know some of you might have concerns about wm5 but it's as stable as it will ever be, if you get a chance try one or check it out at a store or a friends, if you don't want a tytn and have a p910 stick with it, as currently it's better than the p990, I might make a video review of both the tytn and p990 as a comparision about the good/bad things of each as well as general usability and available software, video will give you a better idea than pictures or words can.

@spine, no, the new phones do not have that problem.
@darky, the tytn is nice, but sadly it's too fat for me and the screen colours are only 64k.

Good things about the phone (P990i), the looks, the screen and you have the freedom to use off flip and flip attached...
the business card scanner is wonderfull it really capture the details, but do not attempt to capture the other side of the business card that uses arabic LOL...
Still couldn't make a good swing in golf:(

@spine6, like amnesia said they don't have that problem anymore, that was in the older version of wm, in wm5 the phone saves all open files to flash so even if phone powers off you can get them back.
@amnesia, yeah I agree I don't mind the colors that much but I wish it was vga, especially when reading pdf ebooks.
@skrue, you can find the w950 in some places on the black market, I heard it was way more stable than the p990, I should be getting one soon to try out.
although I do like the W850i form factor more.

@darky - been looking out in deira black market shops here in Dubai. no signs of the w950 nor the w850 from them.
though non-warrantied phones are dead cheap rather than those from the showroom shops. i mean i can get a z550i for only 695aed(which is 795aed in axiom) and a k610i for only 805aed(995aed axiom).

@Jalal - sorry sir, no signs of it yet.
w710i sporty walkman clamshell phone released already in Jumbo Deira City Centre for 1299aed. Its quite small and nice to hold, has this rubbery feel just like the K800i.
R1ED with EROM R3A016 for the K800i is released in official service centres here. Just wanted to inform you guys and lessen WSOD's or dead K800's in the region.
