thanks to all the people who explained how the flip was removed! im soooo excited and all over this phone! im ready to trade off my nokia 9500 once this phone hits the market! im tired of switching phones and all my life ive only had nokia phones. i guess i hit the roof with my nokia 9500. coz nothin can get better than this, so now im venturing in to non-nokia phones. i hope this p990i proves to be a worthy successor of my 9500. the p990's nearly perfect. everything ive ever dreamed of in a smartphone! i hope this will end my switching dilemma, but you know, who can say. smartphones get smarter and smarter everytime....

I asked the SE guy from their road show yesterday. They say the P990i will either come out at the end of this month or early feb if everything go smoothly. He also tell me tat they are upgrading the HP memory stick from 2GB to 4GB. still testing whether the phone can support or not. That might be their delay from launching.

UK T3 reports within 6 weeks of 2006.
I went to HK and they said late january
While browsing through a massive ammount of forum post, people are convinced since sony is trying hard to kill bugs from the new OS the EARLIEST would be march
OPINION: they made an improvement with the keypad from the p910 from the p900 but now were back to keys the size of rice! cmon sony, get ur act together..
either way, im still planning to buy this phone, no matter what.

Yes, it is capable of word and excel editing.
Does anyone know if those phones on ebay are vvalid? I really want to purchase one since there are no signs of it being released in the States any time soon, but I'm wary of the sellers.

The smaller screen is a bit of a worry. They should just change the keypad of p990 to p910i. SonyErics missed big time on this unwanted qwerty.

Regarding all the questions, the P990 or P990i will be release on 1Q of 2006 so like you guys i am very excited about it and getting impatient, i was thinking about buying another phone but hey it's worth the wait.
About the Excel, Word and etc. yes this phone supports them even with the P990i i am not sure about the P990. but of course every phone that has been released theres always an update on it. You can get the updates from web site groups or from the SE website.
i really hope this phone comes out soon!

Can anyone tell me if the "palm" functions of this phone include things like Documents to Go - ie an Excell and Word file transfer, view and edit capability? I am thinking of this against the Nokia 9300 and am no expert in any of them, just sick of carrying around a Palm, a mobile, a camera and an MP3 player which I next to never listen to - does this thing actualy work and do what it says?

So what's the main differences between the p990, n92, and e70. I'm getting a new phone and so far my eyes are set for the p990, but if the n92 or e70 are better I may have to reconsider.

The real competition i see for the p990 is E70 and the N92. Now we gotta wait and see till all of them are released...hmmm. talk abt making right choices.Gosh, verstality well-defined though!..Cheers!

Yes you can remove the flip, just like with the P900/P910i Etc. You get some tools in the pack to remove it. The quickshare logo at the bottom pops off and there should be little screws underneath.
It very easy to do.

@Bhav:
The flip comes off. It's an option. I think you change the lower part entirely, but SE says it comes with the package. Check out this link:

Too bad d pics with the flip off aren't shown prominently. I think it looks better without it.
