    Both Stuff and T3 magazine mentioned that P990 will be out in January. Would they be good reliable sources? Also, T3 did mention that P990 is one of the mobile phones to come out in 6 weeks, which would bring it to the 2nd week of Feb, latest. I wonder if it's possible. I hope so. Anyway, so many palm phones are coming out this month. Sony Ericsson may do well to release P990 this month too. I wonder too if W810 may be released before hand because P990 may not be ready yet, and Sony needs a new phone release, if not they would have no high end phones for 3 months out.

          I've finally made up my mind. I'll be buying this phone (After a last minute challenge from the w810). I have to admit though, a screen resolution of 240x320 on a screen this size is pretty poor. The D600's screen has the same resolution and because it's so much smaller its beautifully clear and crisp. I can't help thinking the pixels on the P990 may be big enough to distort images. Hope not. Although the fact that it's touchscreen makes up for the lack of really high resolution 5 times over.

          Still though, not what you'd expect from a company involving Sony who are renowned for quality displays...Same with the screen on the new w810 too, a low resolution for its size.

          In my opinion, if they sorted their screens out. SE would without question be putting out the best all-round mobile phones on the market.

            Adding EDGE to this phone would be downgrading it.

            It currently has 384kbps 3G data transfer.

            The newly announced w810 has Class 10 EDGE but that only give a rate of 236.8kbps. So adding EDGE to the P990 would be very bad idea indeed.

            I suspect that a non-3G little brother in the PSeries will probably come along soon and that'll have EDGE.

                Forgot to mention, when the flip is detatched, it does not leave the "gap" you were worried about as removing the flip will uncover a very handy qwerty keyboard. Pics:

                  The flip Is detachable,probably get a little screwdriver in box like previous 'P' models. it was really easy to do on the p900 so hopefully same process.Cant wait for this to be released, sony are the best and this is a revolution in pda in my eyes.3g,magapixel camera,wi-fi, cant ask for any more.

                    Its a detatchable flip and the functions would still be available and useable whether the flip is attached or not

                        im confused with the flip of the phone... so does it mean that you have to choose whether to buy a p990 with a flip or not? are there two versions of it, one with flip and the other without? Or is the flip detachable from the phone? then it will leave a big space on the bottom of the phone from where the flip was attached to? im really confused any one help me?

                                If SE put more things in the phone then it would be big, heavy and expensive. Who would be such a phone. Just thing guys, one of the most promising operating systems in a phone with good to v.good features. It is my next phone anyway. 2 in 1, like shampoo :p. A complete mobile phone, and a comlpete PDA in one device. UIQ 3.0 rocks guys, rocks!!! Just take in to account all of these things. Last, a few words abou the processor. It is something new, an innovation I can say. It's not like any of the other processor. Even though the MHz are low it doesn't matter because it has different chips for the 5 or 6 things, you know, graphics etc. So... wait and let's hope it's not very expensive.

                                  Felles,

                                  my suggestion always right, i wrote the o2 atom article seems to be the phone has having very bad features and not comfortable. I prefer to go one and only SE990i.. so guys do ready for the mobile victory with se990i

                                  Thanks
