I found a P1 advertisement in the local newspaper and I bought it from a guy, but now I see its a SE123, the prototype!
Can I still update it, like other P1 phones?
Or did is it all to no use now?
It works fine but its not a real P1, pity me.

Perhaps not a "real" P1 you think, but if I were you I would be very happy! A prototype is something special to those who are enthusiastic about phones and I would hang onto it!
However you may have problems updating it, unless you can find someone with SE Tool. I once flashed a proto M600 and it did work, although the flash process was the strangest thing I have ever seen!
Good luck

It even looks funny now when I compare it with the pictures on the web of a real P1, it has that same brushed metal-like look on the sides, even between the keyboard and the screen, not that black plastic part.
What did I buy? Some kind of monster?
Ps. funny also, it has no scratch anywhere, except for the one I did yesterday.
Hmmm, hmmm, mm? |

Get rid of it.
It probably has a Beta UIQ3 which is full of bugs... |

What means "flashed"?
I just want to have that update on the Sony Ericsson official site with a USB cable, so its same like others. But I feel scared to do it, if somethings goes wrong since its a proto.
I found out it was a proto, since it looked different when I compared mine with the pics on the internet, I am not a specialist. So I thought I was being fouled by the guy, but maybe its cool to have a prototype P1???
Im a newbee, forgive me for so many questions.

Explore the phone, it can have some extra feature like call recording or radio recording, which normal P1 don't have. |

The beta version of P990i did definitely have recording from the radio:

It looks better with brushed metal between the keypad and the screen than that black plastic on P1, Ho ho ho!. I feel better now.
Thanks... |

WTH I thought you should at least see the phone before buying.
