        frankly, the best phone I tryed for ages.
        everything is included. One issues that they should fixe...the camera's sensor. Even if it's 3.2 millions, you can see that it s lowquality pics....but anyway, the phone is for calling...

        really nice music player ;-)

          If P1 is not a successor of P990i, SE should announce P990i successor next month at the latest. I really wanted to replace my P990i to its successor. P990i was announced I think mid-2005 and was available only around August or September 2006. It's been 2 years already but still no successor for P990i. I just hope annoucement no later than October this year.

            I use WLAN frequently.
            To set up, just click the top-left icon, into connections, into Wireless LAN, Scan, Enter Key, and Connect.
            I find its web-browsing via WLAN faster than O2 XDA Exec.
            Only that my laptop can catch signals farther away from the router than this can do. Weird. But perhaps my laptop is several times bigger lol.

              I've had a P1i for 20 days, and not had a problem yet. Yeah the keypad is a bit awkward, but I prefer using the handwriting recognition (that takes a bit of getting used-to). I tried its sound quality with Stereophones, and its as good as my previous W800i, only more versatile equaliser selections.
              It's all good, except when it froze on me, when I tried closing down the O2 GPRS connection. For some reason that doesn't happen as neatly as it should. Restarting solved the problem, anyway.
              Good all-round phone.

                  when I bought this phone was a real surprise because I found inside the box a GPS receiver and "wayfinder" application.
                  I'm not 100% happy because wayfainder not allow to download and save any map. You must have permanent conectivity with wayfinder server for maps.

                    Does anyone know if it is possible to upgrade this phone to HSDPA with any fixes?
                    I have just recently learned that HSDPA is not a hardware! It is merely a piece of software that accelerates data transfer. I know a windows version exists in HTC and PALM devices.
                    This should mean that there must be a Symbian equivalent too out there somewhere!
                    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
                    many Thanks

                          I used the P1i at the weekend and I wasn't that impressed.It didn't seem any quicker than my P990i.It's just an M600i with a 3.2 Megapixel camera on the back and a VGA camera on the front for video calling.OK,so they have increased the memory which it desperately needed because UIQ 3 is a very hungry operating system.
                          Don't be fooled by Sony Ericsson when they say that the P1i is the replacement for the P990i because it's not.They will launch the P990i replacement in the New Year.

                                  Hi All, How does the P1 compare to the W950i ? I have a 950 but the contacts memory is locked not dynamic, hence with nearly 5K contacts to sync it's v v slow + will not sync with PC unless the phone memory is re formatted - painful.

                                  Will the P1 overcome these problems ?

                                        if you are looking for feature rich phone then please don't spend money on phones like N95, n93 etc ... go for p1i it is better phone than any other phone available ... it covers all the drawbacks of p990i ... gives greater power ... nokia Nseries phones don't have document editors so they cannot be business phones .. yes they can be multimedia phones but again p1i can compete with them in this arena as well ..
