Personally I don't need a built in GPS in my cellphone but the facts are the n95 has HSDPA, better video recorder and edge in one package. Which SE phone has all this? As for the 5mp camera I'm not impressed at all by its quality, nokia does come close but fails to beat SE in camera stakes it would seem. I'm SE simply because of Ericsson but I've lost patience and only got a few months (roughly 4 from now) to be dissuaded from buying the e90.

You can buy the Holux GPSlim 236 from about £60 retail its based on SiRFStar III the more superior technology, and is about the best unit you can buy, plus it has recharageble battery plus a real on off switch as opposed to a "soft switch" I use mine every day.

Hi Ares,
Get real the P700 is even bigger and wider than the M600 and W950 and in MO is a porker and all to have a 3.2meg camera with still no optical zoom or proper Video recording either and is still full of old tech no HSDPA, all it has is a Camera, WiFi and enough Ram and a menu system that should of been present in UIQ3 from the start. IMO SE need to start producing real cutting edge devices instead of fixes to what should of been delivered in the first place. Even the retrofit of the new OS only shows what they should of delivered over 9 months ago and it is still months away and will not have addressed the lack of Ram either. If the N95 had a SE badge you would be screaming it's praises as the greatest device ever and aren't SE wonderful, but because it is a Nokia of course you hate it. You are so closed off to anything that isn't your beloved SE you really can't see the wood for the trees. After all it has only taken 9 months to sort out your P990 that still has issues and will get a whole new OS over a year after launch all of which is perfectly acceptable to you in your warped mind i mean after all what do you expect after paying £500 odd for a flagship device surely not that it should work as advertised.

Hey dude, for the umpteenth time, relax. You seem adamant that everyone should view the world as you do, and frustrated that there are so many SE fans here. Hello this is ESATO, it's like wondering why there's so many nationalistic Chinese in China, it's a failed cause dude, so pls don't get too caught up with this whole deal, you'll get a nose bleed. Just a friendly advice.

hey all,
I am not comparing N95 with SE, (I think you cant compare P-series with any mobile in the world) : )
this thread only to talk about GPS in P-series

There might be a conflict of interest as GPS is concerned. Sony also produces stand alone GPS navigators. Maybe the people at SE don't want to cannibalize their own (Sony)market.
