Don't get this phone, I love the old P900, last for ever, work well most of the time. But the new P990, it hangs, had to shut down to improve service/speed, can not read SIM card, its rubbish. If this is the best SE can come up with they will be in trouble.

    In hadwriting recognition you write each letter separately.

      I got a faulty P990 my jog dial just broke took it to the Dominican orange yesterday and they said they weren't supposed to fix it instead they were gonna charge me a lot, after fighting against that they said they were gonna talk to SE to see what they said, i´m so unsatisfied both with orange and SE.

          To anyone having slow phone problem: format the memory stick from within the phone not from the pc. P990 only supports the FAT16 partition table. Conversion to FAT32 or NTFS just slows it down.

                every body that wants to buy this , please lestin to me varefully ; this divise is so bad , very bad , i have a lot of device in several mobile family like nokia , samsing , lg and ... ( nokia : n90 , n70 , n73 , n80 * samsung : d820 , d900 , d600 , .. * sony : p910 , k800 , ... ) so i couldn't find a bad divice like this between them
                it hangs a lot
                very poor in sound
                slowly
                very bad camera

                  Right, or do a debranding of a phone and you'll have the latest FW, World Generic 1.

                    Thanks doministry...so that means I will be able to get the new firmware only when it is launched for O2.

                          That is simple - you have branded phone and SEUS gives you the latest software for your brand.

                          Upgrade from SonyEricsson website directly, not from Orange.
