Agreed... Mem on boot and mem management are the main issues that need dealing with so lets concentrate on that...

1 - he said he can open opera, pdf + and quickoffice at same time...that can´t be done right now, no way.
2 - with swiss manager pro you can avoid closing apps on powersave, the ones you want - but this should be provided by SE...anyway, it can be done easily
I can open opera, pdf+ and quickoffice right now the question is it loaded?? did he just open them?? or did he open files in them? and browsed the web
since he is not a long time user for the p990 and doesn’t look like he have files yet
I can open them without loading files and browsing BIG difference.

@MYB87;
You said it right!! Just open the apps and working on the apps itself are 2 different thing
At the rate this SE is going, think its better to go blokia or WM5

All these!!?? and the P990i still sucks
UIQ 3 based Sony Ericsson phones (P990i, M600i and W950i) use ARM9-based Philips Nexperia PNX4008 application processor in 90-nm CMOS technology, running at 208 MHz.
The CPU subsystem combines a 208 MHz ARM926-EJ processor with dedicated 32k instruction and 32k data caches. It also includes a memory management unit (MMU), a debug port, and a DMA controller.
The video subsystem includes an encode acceleration JPEG decoder, an MPEG-4/H.263 encoder/decoder, and a graphic accelerator, plus LCD and camera interfaces. It supports still pictures resolution of up to 4 Megapixels and can interface to LCD with up to QVGA 18-bit resolution and a refresh rate up to 60 fps. The MPEG-4/H.263 encoder/decoder works with all resolutions up to CIF (352x288) running at 30 fps.
The 2D/3D graphics accelerator (PowerVR from ARM and Imagination Technologies) complies with OpenGL ES 1.0 APIs. Running at 80 MHz, it delivers a typial performance of 150 Megapixels per second and 1.25 million polygons per second.
The audio subsystem combines a fully dedicated DSP (digital signal processor) with integrated digital-analog converters (DACs) and analog-digital converters (ADCs). The audio DSP can operate independently from the ARM CPU and can reference embedded RAM memories for full audio flexibility. For stereo sound, there are two integrated stereo DACs and one stereo ADC. There are also two PCM interfaces, carrying 8- or 16-kHz sample-rate voice channels.
The security subsystem (from Discretix) consists of three coprocessors, a random number generator, and a unique secret crypto key that uses embedded fuses. The PKI coprocessor supports RSA, ECC, DSS, and DH. The symmetric coprocessor supports DES, 3DES, and AES, while the Hash coprocessor supports SHA-I and MD5.

my P990 is singapore version.... any chance mine won't have any updated cause they missed one fw for singapore ver. before.... mine still R2A05... so sad??? any suggestion??
whether there will be a release at the same time for /8 version (chinese enabled), I do not think anyone here has the answer. you would have to just wait and see.
there are 2 versions on sale in Singapore, /2 - Generic World 2 and /8 Chinese enabled.

@siandy;
When I got mine (with chinese enabled version) I managed to upgrade firmware using SEUS to R7. Have you try updating from uk site instead. It might go thru.

@ares & @myb87;
Those apps may be running now. But the real usability is when you try to use any of those 3 after half day normal phone usage, say 1. phone call, 2. contacts & 3. message. By mid day these basic phone apps would have zapped up the initial boot-up ram. Try opera, & office after these basic phone apps.
Long story short, we should not be "suffering" these memory leaks to start off with from the very 1st day P990i is available. After 1 full year of waiting, we are waiting again for better firmware??? Wat a smartphone tis is becoming.
