the ball should be on SE's court.
I believe, RIM just license the software (libraries and API, perhaps SDK?) to the phone manufacturers and up to them to customize for individual models. Pretty much the same practise as M$ with windows mobile.

BES is working fine with latest BB Connect release and R7- firmware. One of the pluses is that I am able to surf the net and receive corporate emails simulataneously. I no longer need to disconnect the Blackberry APN and then connect the internet APN to switch between applications. That was a feature that was absent in the software designed for P900/P910 handsets.
I am currently working to see if BIS works in tangent with BES. That went haywire after RIM passed off Internet account responsibilities to individidual service providers (i.e. T-Mo, etc). If anyone already has tested this please post. I'm not sure if I have to provision my handset for BIS as well or just push the internet account service books to the handset. SE's EMO was doing a great job at pushing (almost instantly) my internet emails to my phone, but it can't be installed if BB connect is already installed.

UPDATE: I can confirm that BES does work concurrently with BIS on P990 (Firmware R7A....) using latest BB Connect Software v3.37. I am also able to surf the net using my Home WiFi network while these services are running. This is great news because we have never been able to perform all three tasks (BES + BIS + NET) simultaneously with BB Connect + any Pxx series. I will be drafting another BB CONNECT DUMMY GUIDE with illustrations for these services hopefully before the end of the week. If anyone else has already taken efforts to do this or have suggestions to improve over the last one please provide feedback.

Hi
Atlast I got some chance to read through this thread. I got my P990 in United States this Monday. And the phone is awesome. Something which, I never experienced before. I am trying to connect to the Blackberry Internet Service and I have been searching for Blackberry Connect for the past couple of days spoiling my other works. I am not able to find one. Went to Sony Ericsson support. It sucks. Unlike their phone. I am seeing in this thread that few of you have already got it and make it work. Can you help me in getting this up and running by providing the link to the latest BB Connect? Your help is highly appreciated here.
Also I got another question here. It would be very helpful if someone can answer this.
How do I find the firmware of my P990?
When I logon to Sony Ericsson's website, it says that I should take the phone to the nearest service center to find the firmware. Please help.
Regards,
Suresh

I'm much the same as the fella above.
I need to get 3.37 BB connect working with a SE p990i.
Our company uses a enterprise blackberry server (BES) and the SIM i am trying to get this working on has previosuly worked on a 8700g BB and a p910i (so i dont think its the isps fault - but im not ruling it out)
Vodafone wont help me - "p990i isnt supported sir"
Sony Ericsson have very little support for the 990i - even the uk & us site have no support area for it (although i did find the downloads for it eventually on the SE site (using google to get to them).
I've managed to install the client fine... however, the apn disconnects the second it connects to the blackberry service.
the thing is.. i see that the client trys to use the "BES blackberry.net" internet account. However. on my old p910i..the bb client was happy using my "contract vodafone wap". i see no setting to change the account it wants to use which is a bugger. I've tried editing the "BES blackberry.net" settings to match the vodafone ones, to try to trick it into connecting to vodafone, but i get the same results.
The webbrowser connects to the web just fine (using the contract voda wap" account), it just seems to be this blackberry client having probs.
I'm happy to email anyone the 3.37 software along with the configuration tool if you can get back to me when you get it working!
email
ajkett@rocketmail.com and i'll send it your way, but i really need some help with this thing, as the person im trying to set this up for is by Boss at work, who is increasingly getting frustrated with the new expensive phone that vodafone sold him (im in the IT dept btw).
I cant tell you the firmware im running as i no one seems to mention how to actually get that up on the 990i screen, but i can tell you that its the latest ver as of 20th spet 2006, as the sony update service says it doesnt need updating.
other things to add:
ive tried manually regestering my phone on the vodaphone mobile site as well.
Any help would be massivly appriciated.
cheers chaps.
Tony.

Quickly downloaded and installed the new client this morning. Logged in and changed the PIN/IMEI on my T-Mobile UK InstantEmail account and it's been working great for the past 12 hour.
