@ Hobbster:
Damn, that's a bummer. That's poor battery performance if it's conked out already! The P900 is still using its original battery after nearly 4 years of use.
There's no way I'd pay that for a P-series battery. I'll see what prices I can get, re genuine

new ones here and let you know.

BST-33 retailing for £14.95 (approx R220) from Mobilefun:

...or from about £5.00 (approx R75) new for aftermarket ones here, including delivery:

Taking it into Vodacare 8 o'clock tom morning for a
24 evaluation.
Could be software related they said.(me hopes)
If it does turn out to be the battery,Im going to pick it up and get
my aunt in Joburg to send me one down from
Sony Ericsson at Vodaworld.
They charge R389.00
Thats saving just over R200.
Im so depressed

Thats R389.00 that could have gone towards my
8GB M2 stick.
