The P990i is published as supporting RIM Balckberry - but I could not get clear answers as to how exactly it is done- and could not find anything on SE's materials!
- Do you know of any source of information so I can make sure it does work?
- Does it need any modifications on the Blackberry Enterprise Server? If so - what exactly?
- Does it need any modules to install on the P990i itself? If so - where can I get them?
- What are the exact parameters for configuring the device to work with Balckberry Enterprise Server?
- Any info about a user's guide as to how to use the P990 as a Blakberry terminal (e.g the emulation for the different keybord keys,etc) ?
Thanks for any help,

Could be wrong but maybe the M600 software will work? Give this a read: http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=126780
I would like to have blackberry on my P990 when I get it so any input on this subject will be great

The M600 sis file should in theory work perfectly on the P990, as it is designed for Symbian 3 UIQ |

People on the BlackberryForums.com site have tried the M600i BB .SIS file and receive the following error:
Cannot Install
The following software must be present on this device before the installation can proceed
Software Name
SonyEricsson10274BF4PlatformProductID
Version
1.00(0) or Later
Install this software and begin the installation again
After someone there contacted SE, SE stated since the official launch of P990i is 8/24/06, the BB software has not been released.
What a surprise!

Hi All,
I had tested BB Connect 3.35 for the past couple of days. It works with P990i with BES (but only supports the latest R3A04 firmware) . I am not entirely sure if it works well with BIS. There are a few issues I had discovered and note I am on Exchange Server:
1. Moving of emails to archive folders. These emails are still there on the P990i.
2. I can download attachments of up to 30kb. I can use QuickOffice to open it. However, if I choose to use Blackberry's way of "View Attachment", BB Connect 3.35 attachment viewer will crash. If I continue trying harder, the whole BB Connect 3.35 will crash. Have to reboot the phone at this point.
3. Calendar - If I use BB on the P990i to make a "New Meeting". I then invited someone who in the end rejects the meeting. If I delete this calendar entry on the P990i, it will not delete the entry in Outlook. Strangely, if that person accepts the meeting, and then I go delete from P990i's calendar, Outlook will also be deleted. Note I only tested invitation of 1 person. |

it is out in Singapore and can be installed at SE service Centres
a member from a Singapore SE forum posted the software after getting it from the service centre.
it is said that BIS users may faced difficulties in using it.
I'm using BES. |
