About the battery, he said it was a smaller capacity battery than than
the P910i.



To my knowledge P990 has same battery capacity as P910 (~1200 mAh), but the dimension of it is smaller.

For everybody here. The phone will be around April in the 2nd quarter
of 2006. I talked to a guy today via the MSN on the P990i and he told
me that the device would be around at that time and not sooner due
to marketing.

Developers are already ready with the software. The device is already
inside the developers teams from around April this year. The software
is already finished so far. So the software is not the issue but the
marketing which SE is planning now. My expectance is that 3GSM and
Cebit will be a large fairs related to the P990i. After that we will see
the device in the shops.

Nice photo's @ Masseur.

I wasn't much impressed by the QWERTY at first but I do like that nice blue light and it's also better to have larger keys this time around !

I was wondering is there any speculation on the price yet?

is the camera cover an active cover like k750i? or is it just like the k500i?


active i think....

but why is the battery indicator, in a diff location from other? and what is that wierd symbol in its place?

and one other thing, will the touchscreen work in the flipclosed mode, unlike the other P series... ?

They did tell me there would be a Bluetooth Stereo handsfree that they would be showing tomorrow (12/10/05). I asked whether that was BT 2.0 or 1.2 he didn't know. I would hope it was BT 2.0 as listening to mp3's over BT 1.2 is pointless as there's not enough bandwith. I asked him also about A2DP, yet again he didn't know.




Dude you and me are EYE2EYE on this one; you should've asked if teh P990 had BT v2.0 not just the handsfree. Stereo BT streaming needs the v2.0 bandwidth along with the extended usuage & standby rates of conserving battery power over previous BT versions. ANyone going tomorrow can state this fact to them please!!!

Personally I love this phone. Nice fresh Gui look over series60 (sounds like the Gnome/KDE GUI wars on Linux,lol).

@masseur, excellent photos & questions you asked! I also noticed that with so much menus on the still photo screen that the hardware key placing seems inefficient. Wouldnt it be usefull to have the scrollwheel on the same side as the capture button?? to scroll up down through settings?? Hmm. Other than that & a need for BTv2.0 for quality streaming audio for headphones this is how my next round of purchases will look like:

K750i (x2: Oxidized Black & Silver)
P990i (hopefully a black variant) + 2GB MS DuoPro
Nokia HS-W12 Stereo BT Headset with FM Radio+RDS.

It seems that P990 will be another SE huge success. I have no doubt about that: 2.0mpx with autofocus, stable and bigger keyboard (nice move), wi-fi, landscape mode, usb 1.0 full, 3G, 3d graphics acceleration, RDS FM ...

One question: will we get full e-mail implementation? Unfortunately, I can't directly access some services (i.e. Gmail) with the built-in e-mail client in my P910i (no SSL). Well, I know we can get a third party application, but have you already checked your batteries? I didn’t find any third party application (i.e. profimail – very nice app) that doesn’t eat them a lot.

I miss an alarm that works with the phone turned off. Will we get one with P990?

I wish you were correct, but, unfortunately, we won't get usb 2.0.

Take a look: "¡K Infrared and full USB 1.0 operating at 12 Mbps - as opposed to the bungled 0.7 Mbps serial/USB conversion of the P900 series - in such a compact device must be said to be quite a feat. " Good preview here:

Well, if you found an official info about it, let me know dude. ļ

Next year for me. I see they place the qwerty on fa phone and not the flip he i was seeing right. I'm wondering if that was the cause for the slightly smaller screen.

btw, is there a way to get that opera software working on our p910??

it would be nice to have that landscape mode while waiting for p990 to come out.

Masseur,

Can you please check what's going on with your pictures?
When I click on the thumbnails, a new window opens but there is nothing inside. I think they got corrupted!

Can please re-post them?

Thanks !!
