I am very disappointed at P1i because the email with Blackberry connect feature is extremely slow, it takes me 10 secs to just open one email from the inbox which means that it will take me addtional 25 minutes to gone through my usual 150 email per day. Also the interface is very clumbersome, it takes 3 point and clicks to delete one email, I am going back to my Nokia E61.

Well, like some others I now have my P1i, first Sony Ericsson smartphone I own. Generally its pretty good, although I'm seeing some bugs (Some of these have been posted by others here)
1) If you receive a message, click reply and then quickly start typing with auto capitalisation enabled, it comes out un-capitalised. I know I could wait for a second, but it is annoying all the same!
2) This is more of a bug/feature request, it can be a bit confusing to have the same message sound as a delivery report (As someone else stated, SE non smart phones have a different delivery sound)
3) In the combined inbox read/unread messages should have a different icon. The bold text for new messages is good, but a different icon too (as with the non smart phones) would be nice.
4) If you look in messaging, to get between Inbox/Drafts/Sent messages you are forced to use the annoying horizontal menu when there is a huge amount of free space below! If the sideways scroll part was removed, the 5 items could easily be fitted in below. This could be an optional feature, but it seems a waste to have to navigate through an extra system when there is already a whole load of interface space unused below.
5) This really is more of a feature request than anything, but, when in the unified inbox, it should be possible to switch between inbox/drafts/sent etc by using the directional arrows (to both sides of the 0 key) like some other phones do (Samsung I believe?)
6) WiFi scan sometimes kills the phone and causes it to reboot ( I have not been able to single this down to anything, it always seems to work as expected at home) and puts the phone into a 'Your phone was rebooted to improve performance' loop (Getting out of this required removing the battery)
Otherwise I'm impressed by the phone so far.

my usage is similar most days and after each recharge cycle I am notice an improvement in battery consumption (i.e. its getting better), so give it more time befoer judging the battery
I call commenting last year in the first few days of theM600 that I was lucky to end up with 25% at the end of the day. Just before getting the P1 I rarely dipped below 60%

3 days with my P1 (it is my first smartphone):
- 1 reboot after scanning for WLAN. worked fine since then.
- Installed tons of apps and games (TomTom, Tube 2, Agile Msg, Lemmings, Divx Player, Dreamconnect, Fring, Another ball, Handy day, Handy Clock, Brothers in Arms) Not a single problem. I can run up to 10 apps without a hitch. Some of them take some time to open but once they're open, everything's fine.
- Setup my Gmail acount, got all my emails without a problem through Home Wifi or GPRS.
- Used Business Card reader, works well.
- The picture quality of the camera could be improved compared to the K800 but it's much better than any HTC device and I believe slightly under N95 (not much of an issue here).
- The touchscreen is great, I can use it to write short messages quite quickly (you need to read the booklet though to be able to draw all characters). I've heard turning the handwriting recognition makes the interface snappier but I haven't tried yet.
- I'm getting used to the keyboard. Many times, I though I hit the wrong key or side of the key and the right letter appears

. I guess I just have to do some "faith-typing".
- the battery already last longer after 2 power cycles.
I think that's about it really. The phones looks amazing, feels great and the few bugs reported on Esato are not bothering me at the moment.
All in all, nice buy FOR ME.

you need the headphones as these act as the antenna, but you can have the sound come through the main speaker!
