depends entirely on price and what offers are available on it. But seeing as how im on orange UK, it probably wont be out till months later than the sim-free version, will have horrible graphics added by orange and locked so you cant change them, and thats if they actually offer it at all.

Hell, it's not perfect but then what is...would have preferred it without the keyboard for example...I'll be getting one I think...contract runs out in Feb so it saves me having to pay an upgrade fee if not out until then! ...certainly a better option than getting any of the HTC rubbish.

Oh, i'm a huge fan of the P910i, and i didn't have the P800 or P900 just because i could not afford it at the time.... and even with the 2Mpix camera and UMTS which are good things, i cant, in freaking hell understand why they lost the big screen, i mean even if they raised the resolution from 208x320 to 240x320 (which actually isn't that much, pixel wise) i hate the small screen. It was the one thing that no other Nokia (for example) untill then would have. i remember when i would enjoy making fun of my friends 7610 or 6600 with the big screen.. even if (for a mobile phone) they had big screens.
The phone design, i find looking good, it feels modern, as the new Sony Ericsson phones are.. but the keys look damn ugly, and even the inside keyboard (the qwerty) looks weird, like a little disproportionate...
Also i hated the empty inside part of the phone's keypad, and i was so looking forward to the qwerty being over there again.. and the keys (even if apparently from a different material) appears to be of the same size.
The jogdial, even if not 5way, anymore, it works in the presence of the joystick, i mean, i liked the jogdial, but not that much actually, no more than the regular joystick
The finish looks brilliant though.. i really feel the back of the phone, it really looks fresh and i love it, almost as much as i loved the S700 one.. that's maybe the best thing i see at this phone...
No colour change, and i'm guessing that if they made the screen (a lot) smaller, the least they could do is make it a 16.7 million colour screen, as i've seen in other quality phones... and also perhaps put in a 256 standard memory inside the phone and a 256 or 512 card included, seeing as it might just reach the 1000 dollar mark, at least in the first months of selling.
Simbian 9.1 / 3.0 is important but i don't feel it is what defines the phone..
Having passed through the Mitsubishi Trium, Nokia 5110, 3310, 6310i, and Sony Ericsson T300, T290i, T610, T630, K700i, and the really great P910i i can honestly say that if i would have to choose from the K750i, the W800 (which is basically the same phone), the W600 or 550 and the P990, i would take the W800 any day of the month...
I really look forward to something groundbraking from the Smartphone division of S.E. or a set with some fun atributes and a sleeker design...

Will surely get one. Depends on the price, if affordable will get it as soon as it is available. If high will have to wait till it drops.

Again SE fails to make an 850Mhz phone. Moto has so many quad phones. SE needs to make all it's phones quad, to serve a wider population.

I'll get one if I can afford one, which basically translates into not before May, which might be when it comes to Egypt anyways. And I'm not selling a kidney, with the amount of water I drink one kidney alone would quite in a week. Maybe even I should install a third one

but then if I can't afford a phone Ican't afford a kidney.
I'd just like to add that the screen isn't that much smaller in area, its just the change in proportions.

Maybe it will look much better in the flesh, and maybe by the time it is released I'd have read enough reviews to actually crave for it like I did with my P910, but untill that happens, count me out of this! It's not the one for me!
