Not really...Q4 release in Europe means it will face different competition by both Nokia and SE, not the existing devices

It's a hard fact to swallow, but you're right. All indicators so far serve to reinforce your point. It doesn't make sense at all for SE to admit to shortcomings involving this particular handset cos all dissatisfactions with the P990 will be drowned out over time by their success with the other ranges. I wonder if stuff would be different if the product in question was one of greater mass appeal though. We do represent a pretty tight niche and the series that we're supporting is at the final stage of its life-expectancy. We're just collateral damage.
@Dogmann
M600? I imagine that if you owned a P990 instead, there'd be nothing left of it to sell... Heh.
@bitnaut
ares is absolutely right but I'd expect that announcement from Apple to cause their competitors to head back to the boardrooms to do some serious planning for their next generation of handsets. Competition's always good for the consumer.

Ah Hah! An ally. Great. Before anyone else posts their request, I'll state mine. Tell SE this
"I'm holding my P990 hostage. If you ever want to see this handset alive again, do as I say. If you fail to meet my demands, I'll torture it slowly. Starting with the touchscreen...
I want a name. Has to be a full time SE staff. At least a manageral level or the equivalent of and no less than 3 years working experience with SE. NOT from Customer Service, HR, or PR. Top level management ideal but will settle for Marketing, Engineering, Programming, R&D manager. This person will exist as our point of contact.
Esato members will nominate 3 to 5 users who will correspond directly with this person. They will filter useful information from the rest of the community and relay them directly to the named representative who will in turn ensure that it is communicated to the relevent department in SE. Frequent updates on SE's progress is to be provided to Esato's nominated members.
Users will contribute to the development of new SE products and will aid in the recitification of existing problems in current products.
SE is to launch a new marketing campaign stating that they listen to their fans. SE will state that they value their loyal customers above all else and mean it.
SE will only attempt to gain market share by emphasizing the importance of their customers. Any action without regard to their loyal fan-base will be deemed as an act of defiance. The community will respond accordingly.
Should SE fail to comply to the abovementioned demands, the said P990 will suffer a fate worse than death. I will load the handset up with as many applications I can get my hands on, and allow it to run. The world will be able to witness this brutal act with their own eyes through the wonders of the Internet. If the P990 crashes, I WILL restart it. If it's battery goes flat, I WILL recharge it."
Thanks for the assist man. Bless your soul. By the way, one day I gotta speak with you about how you manage to get past the spam filter and customer service staff. ^^

tried to contact SE - just got very formal unhelpfull replies
Dropped my P990 (now 2nd phone for the twin card) for a Samsung SGH-i320 and have ordered the SGH-i600, WM5 so much better than UIQ.

@Bjorn
I respect your views... Even though I strongly dislike WM.
But what really gets my goat is the fact that UIQ3 "could" have made so much more of a better impression than it has left some of us with.
@Everyone reaing this thread:
I have an answer to the original question:
Have SE forgotten about us?
Answer: Yes... Overwhelmingly so! They are already working on the P1000... or whatever they plan to call it. They are going to sweep the P990i under the carpet and anyone who bought it will be treated like scum. AGAIN what's new here?
I really admire all those of you who are not afraid to show your dissatisfaction at SE, and also don't try to force others to share your views. This is what I think makes an honest forum.
All I can say is that this thread has shown what I percieve to be the SE P990i in it's true colours. And by the looks of it I wasn't the only one.
PS. Where is all the promised 3rd party software we were promised?
Anyone care to levy apart from the fact that the new Signing system has made developers lose intrest?

I bought this piece of crap P990 about 4 months and stopped using it after about 3 days as it was so unreliable. Consistent with all the other complaints already expressed in this forum I can't say LOUD ENOUGH how disgruntled I am with SE. I am absolutely amazed that they would even thing of releasing a product at this stage of development to the market. I think a class action lawsuit is in order.
You can bet with my dissatisfaction that I have shared my views with at least 10 other people. Imagine if every person experiencing problems with the P990 shared thier dissatisfaction with 10 people. Pretty soon SE will be going out of business, I'm signing off I need to execute a short sale on their shares.
