@dogmann,
Glad you like your phone so much and it works as it should. It's one of the best looking Nokia designs for ages IMO despite it's size, the Nokia range aren't exactly style icons these day's and the N73 is a plastic brick.
I still prefer the P990I because it's smaller when in use due to not being a full flip design and I prefer the touch screen PDA. Out of interest does the N93 have the call volume keys on the side?
Next year we'll have VGA screens I'm sure so then the PSP may well be truely matched. |

Hi Apolla,
The N73 does but the N93 does not, volume control either during a call or using multimedia is via the D pad.
I must admit the biggest thing i was worried about in moving away from UIQ was losing the touchscreen as i always used the onscreen keyboard as my preferred text entry method. It has only been a couple of months since i moved to a Nokia N70 then N73 and finally N93(not planning on any more changes anytime soon) and to my surprise have actually found i don't miss it as much as i thought i would. I have found as i only open the N93 in Landscape/Laptop mode i am can even type effectively with the keyboard in this strange orientation not even sure how or why but i can.

Ah, thats what bugged me like mad on my 7610, the Dpad being used for volume, I hated it, why Nokia can't stick the key's on the side I'll never know. |

Sadly both phones will be absolutely butchered by both companies  , possibly taking alot of the functionality that comes with the p990i.
Prime example is Vodafone and their absolutel butchery of the SE M600i, they took the task manager away!!!...unbelievable really and i feel for the people who have one because unlike the other SE phones...you cannot de-brand the M600i and i would expect the same to be with the P990i.
But anyways good to hear that the phone will be out soon on uk networks. |

I cannot see half of the menu items including control panel...

Not meaning to be patronising, but is this in Flip Closed mode? Because many of the programs are rendered invisible unless you use Flip Open mode...

Hii all, I just wanna to know some things about p990i cause iīm really thinking to buy one.
1- The audio quality of the media player is the same of w800/w810. Any diferences in max volume?
2-What applications that comes with the p990 are totaly free? (not the try and buy ones)
3- Built quality. Any cracking?
4-Qwerty keybord: Is it practical?
5- Vibrating power: Good enough or sometimes you canīt sense anything like in W810?
6-Battery life: Better then the other P models or the same?
7-Loudspeaker and calls volume. Is good like the other P models or is crap like in k700/k750 ? (With my old w800 i canīt ear a thing when is too noise around. Max volume was too low)
8-Ram issue: You can run at least 3 or4 simple aplications like Messaging, Control panel, Agenda, Camara, Contacts, Media player, at the same time?
