@ Hobbster:
Re-ignited the P990i affair? Knew the wind would change direction again; die 'Kaapse Dokter' blowing in CT today? Must be UIQ favour today then, LOL.
Wi-fi is sporadic in parts here. A regular wi-fi scan at home picks up my broadband router and one or two others. Only when I'm away from home or work do I actually use it, if/where wi-fi hotspots are. (as I mentioned before, I'm surrounded by unlimited broadband at work and home, so no pressing need for accessing it).
Some local coffee shops are cleverly marketing themselves as wi-fi hot spots, and then wi-fi comes into its own on the P1i.
Thing is, most times that we're out and about, we're socialising or spending quality time together, so I seldom use wi-fi in such situations...balance in life and all that. Darth Mario will be so proud of me...

@ Gucci:
Ya it's a nca treat once in a while; we seldom have liqueurs though.
Having said that, Frangelico remains a firm fave.
Dang, liquid hazelnuts at its best!

@da wanqsta: What are the speeds like on wi-fi hotspots? And don't these networks drain your battery?

@JC08: I own the new iPod Nano- my second one. Have to say its a brilliant little device and does what its supposed to do- most of the time.
My only gripe is with the new iTunes software, particularly the sync function...my specific beef being that doesn't always note the last songs played and new song added to the library.
Don't know about watching movies on the small screen, unless you're down with squinting your way through the Lord of The Rings trilogy.
For R1300 its not too bad I suppose.

Jc ìwith R1300 id track me down a 8GB M2/Pro Duo memory stick and stick it in my P990i.One device for me.Ive never gotten into the whole Ipod craze im afraid.Brix has one so maybe he can advise you better,but for me it would be spent on a 8GB card.

@ da brixsta: Wi-fi hotspots here, like most others, are usually either 802.11b (up to 10mpbs) or (occasionally) 802.11g, up to 54mbps!
The P1i's wi-fi is 802.11b like many others. And yes, the battery's juice level did show a relatively quick drop each time on those few occasions, as expected.
Now then, imagine being equipped with 802.11n when this proposed new benchmark emerges later in 2009, supporting speeds up to 108mbps...!!
Battery technology just can't keep up...sigh.
EDIT: I'll try be more precise and accurate re:performance stats next time we visit the local Starbucks.
