If it did recieve an early release in a certain country...say 3months ahead of another country would the earlier version be of worse quality in any way? Or would it be exactly the same phone just released at different times?

I'd guess the quality of the handset would be slightly poorer than handsets released later.
Its the same with my K750i, the joystick is noticably softer than new K750i phones and the casing creaks more. Its not that mine has had excessive use thats caused it to be like that, it was like it from day one. New phones have much more responsive joysticks.
I'd guess the same with happen with the P990i. As for it being released first in UAE, its possible sure but usually the first people on Esato to get their hands on new SE handsets are those in Sweden, Norway or eastern european countries.

Well from what i've read in earlier posts you're right about the eastern countries, but i shall know if i'm getting a p990i in about 5 days so i guess we'll have to wait till then. But what do you reckon would be different on an earlier p990?

Not sure. It might be that in 6 months after the phones release, SE will add a stronger jogdial, or possibly stronger keys / flip / lens cover.

It might be that after they release the P990 they suddenly go mad and bring out several handsets not long after like a P1000! To fix all the problems they may discover once the 990 is in the hands of users worldwide !!

Well, as of right now im considering buying a N80 instead, and a K800i to accompany it.
The P990i just seems so far off even though im not too eager to get my hands on it atm, and today i was playing around with a friends K-Jam and was impressed by it over my old XDA2.

I hope so, we will have even more devices to choose from

Absolutely, I'd love to see a P1000 perhaps based on the P990 but with GPS built in, a minimum of 3mp camera. The 910 came out fairly soon after the 900, and it's been such a long wait. By the time the 990 is released mainstream, technology will have moved on further. Phones have already broken the 3mp cam barrier etc, and by July you can guarantee Nokia/Samsung et al will have announced new stunning Q4 phones.

This is actually true. the p800 was released in four countries in dec.2002 and UAE was one of them;
you sure about that? I got my P800 in NYC in Oct of 2002.. and i thought NYC sucked back then for new phones first...

You can certainly get phones "early" in the middle east, the W900 for instance was there first, thats how I got mine. My dad is going to Dubai on the 1st of May, so if the P990 is there he will most likely buy a few.
