@O'Yom: Have you updated your P1 firmware? I am considering updating mine but everytime I remember the bug I caught after updating my W950 I hesitate.

why risk an update if your current firmware is stable? if u update now, be prepared to put up with slow handwriting recognition. |

@amby: I can live with that since I never use handwriting recognition, I have fully adapted to P1's keypad. Was your boss' P1 problem a result of updating? Any other issues? |

@brym: I attempted an update when I first got the P1i, but SEUS said I already had the most up-to-date software. Is there a new firmware release?

No, it wasn't as a result of updating, he lost his previous P1 which had the original firmware that shipped with P1 at release, then he bought a replacement which obviously, had a more recent firmware with the HWR bug. I was just concerned that you might upgrade to this firmware and its attendant bug. |

Well so much for updates, the connection at the office these days is terribly slow. Any attempt to update with that slow speed will brick my device.
@All: This place is like a graveyard these days, so quiet. So where's the action at?

 I wonder too o. But internet connections these days are so terrible. Starcomms CDMA 1x is quite appalling. EVDO subscribers are complaining worse. Celtel GPRS is near unusable, and with Glo GPRS/3G, I don't even get a connection, so I'm mostly on MTN GPRS/3G (you can imagine the cost).

That bad? I thought I was losing out on Celtel by sticking to Glo. With Glo I sometimes swich between GSM and 3G networks. When I leave my phone on GSM+3G mode, data connectivity disappears and voice calls drop so often. Still can't figure if it is Glo wahala or my phone. Again, I still don't understand why my battery runs down faster when I am on 3G. Any technical explanation for this? |

I have learnt to bear the hiccups of Celtel gprs and pray for a stable connection each time I browse. Sometimes, like today, the connection is marvelous. |

@brym: mobile phone radios generally consume more power latching on to a 3G signal. As a rule, if you switch on 3G your battery life drops. Of course, some batteries and phones handle this better than others.
Believe me, you are missing nothing on Celtel. Stick with Glo till further notice.
@amby: I don suffer for Celtel hands with respect to GPRS. I finally gave up. Hopefully, they will sort this out quickly.

Only because you are in Lagos. Celtel gprs is about the best out here. I was able to use it to download itunes, avast4 and PDF995 yesterday. A cumulative of approximately 40mb of data. Not bad eh?
I guess the theory of gprs using excess bandwith is playing out in my favour here. Celtel is the worst voice call network here, but that means its the best for data. One man's meat..........
