great! if we can get the software update, then i have absolutely no urge to upgrade to P9. that gimmicky/generic sony design doesn't appeal to me at all.

yeah it would be good to get some new features on the p800, i was hoping that SE would do something about it. I mean its pretty obvious and all with no firmware updates for the last 3 months. Surely they're developing a dual firmware that works on p800/p900 with minor changes.

Dear Christian,

There will be no software upgrade for the P800 to enable P900 features.

No upgrade. No magical P800 ---> P900 firmware deal. It's a new handset guys, not a P800 "let's fix the bugs/flaws/customer upset" redo.

This kind of thread should be nuked on sight. It's total BS. Sell ya P800 and buy the P900 if you want the P900 functionality.

It's the only way it's gonna happen.

Tell me you gooses, why the hell would SE release a software upgrade for the p800 to make it function like a p900? Would that be in their best interests? NO. It is a newer model, and I dont think they are gonna make a newer model backwards compatible with an older model. We are talkong about a billion dollar business here, I know that If I were the SE CEO, I wouldnt risk potentially high sales by releasing a software release for an older model to make it function like a newer one. I would Make sure that if previous users liked the new model so much, they would buy it, not hang around like dicks waiting for a friggin emulation sorta thing. I mean, essentially, thats what you guys are after, isnt it? "Oh, its only software". For those who say that, you must be completely phone ilitterate and computer ilitterate. Screens different, ROMS different, blah blah blah. Just sell your p800 and buy a p900 and stop the whinging. If u dont like its look, make a cardboard cutout of a p800 and put it around ur p900, PROBLEM SOLVED

lol
I too am not a fan of this newly "Sony" designed phone rather than by it seems. However, if there is not going to be an update for the P800, I know one of these days I'm going to cave in and sell my wonderful P800 for the new model.

[edit] Well I have just read the review on my symbian ( a bit late I know) and somehow I don't think will be that nice to us to give an update for the P800. Whatever happens though I do want the new features and this means I might need to get a P900 I mean it has an electronic keypad...an electronic keypad!! Ah well yet again I have been drawn in to s flame, but too be honest it's warm in here you should come join me
