People - please don't get exited if some 'supplier' removes the 'comming soon' from there site ! Usually it is a good sign, but with the P990i is another story. (not usual). Removing of ' comming soon' can also mean - it will be not coming soon anymore, or in plain english - IT WILL BE LATE - !

Delivery report about Sonyericsson P990
2006-08-01 15:04
Per Alksten from Sony Ericsson, how is it going with the deliveries of the P990?
- The phone is currently being produced, and should be in stores in the upcomming weeks.
Any exact dates for when it will be available can't be found, but according to Per Alksten it should be available soon.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Seems to be delayed until late August from that (we are in the beginning of August, so a couple of weeks would be late August  )

I briefly had a vodafone P910 but sent it back.
basically, I simply don't want other people to make assumptions about how I am going to use my device. Also I don't just use vodafone's service, also I want to be able to update my phone if/when firmware updates become available should I have some issue that is resolved by that update. I don't want to have to wait for the branded update and I don't want to be forced to use 3rd party debranding/updating services.
basically I want my phones to be the way they were generically designed and I'm happy to pay more for that

OK I can understand that thanks!
I have owned the ... T68i T610, P800, P900, P910, P990, W950, P1, W960 But SE have now totally lost the plot. |

Do you think if i placed an order with expansys today, would i get that around the 14th of Aug like the others who placed thier order months ago or do you think they will only have very limited stock? |

@jmcconell, place pre-orders from a number of shops and cancel the orders when you get your first P990 (except pixmania as they charge your credit card before availability!). Expansys will get a steady stream of stock so you'll get yours if not in the first stock then perhaps in the subsequent deliveries. The price at phones2udirect look good but they seem like a funny outfit to deal with.

Well im absolutely disgusted now, i get a call from expansys saying that the phone will be with me on monday and now i look and see that it another freaking 8 days before they get any stock in 
What an utter farce this whole god damn thing has become!!!!, SE lie about release dates at every opportunity and Expansys are not much better....
Oh well im waiting till next monday and if i dont have the phone in my hands then i will cancel my order with expansys and forever wash my hands of SE, ive never been so angry off over a phone and its release date
To be honest i dont think this phone is going to be worth it, by the time it gets out on the market it will be severely out of date.
Damn you SE to hell
/me takes a deep breath

HTC TyTn is listed as available in 4 days so for me, if that comes first, that will probably be the decider...
Having got rid of my k-jam I'm kinda missing the windows mobile device and the M600 has given me the insight into the new UIQ3
lets see which really comes first...
