If i do a backup of my P900 and after that do the upgrade, Can i then without problems restore the backup to my upgraded phone?

Is it only in England these upgrades can be done, someone knows if it can be done somewhere in Sweden?

hah, is ur b-day soon?
About the update, there is a speed difference at first but as you use it more and more it becomes faster Ive only got out of memory warnings with certain large webpages using opera (this happens with my P800 aswell!) ...and lastly, the battery has almost doubled in life nick.
There are many more advantages but l will list them later on.

overall its well worth updating!

I have so much data in my P900. If i do an upgrade and they flash it it will be empty.

My question is. Is there any problems to restore my backup from my P900 as it is now to the upgraded P905?

As i understand one can not do so between P900 and 910?

I can also recommend getting the upgrade. Being able to use a 1GB MS card is SUPER!

Also, you can now create folder in mail, SMS, MMS - to store and organize old messages

You can change screen brightness

BT can be switched on/off from the statusbar

It's just NICE!

I just tested free memory on a freshly booted phone, only Sman and "Messages" running:

39% free (6512KB)

Pretty nice - i have no problems running even the VRally demo (at least on a freshly booted phone, but that was the same when it was a P900).

Also the audioplayer now plays AAC files - great for us using iTunes.

@ten18

You are confusing backup/restore with firmware. It will not change the firmware as the backup reads userdata only not firmware.

Does anybody know of a place to upgrade in The Netherlands? Nils7, do you know of someone?

Also I like to know if bluetooth GPS devices will work after the upgrade. I like to use Route 66 or TomTom (after they have been made available to the public) but I read there where some issues with the Bluetooth connections after a firmware upgrade...

BT GPS works fine, I've running Wayfinder with a BT GPS unit for the last 2 months now on an upgraded P900.
