Hi all,
Whilst i can appreciate and understand why so many of you love your P1's even with all the modding you can do just how do you feel about the lack of HSDPA late 2008? Does being restricted to just 384kbps Data speeds whilst most are accessing speeds well over 1mbps not frustrate you at all?
...

HSDPA means absolutely nothing to me... The P1i is the perfect size to carry in my pocket - and does pretty much everything I need - I love the mods that hackers have been working so hard with, and the feel and quality of the device and touchscreen is superb.
So much packed into such a tiny device - it's almost a miracle
And... I have heard reports of people buying them for £90 off ebay
- how much VFM can you ask for?
Have a nice day now... y'all

Farewell UIQ! =]
It's not dead because someone from Sony Ericsson declared to be dead.
If motorola come out with a touchscreen UIQ 4 phone, I'll switch back.
MOTOROLA?
LOL! Ye whatever, you're on your own on that one, most of us will be enjoying S60 And S60 Touch with loads of applications currently available and upcoming:
http://conversations.nokia.com/home/2008/10/s60-application.html as well as frequent updates that will actualy improve our devices, and devices that are actualy released on time.
If SE couldn't manage UIQ well i dont think Moto will do any better, their latest UIQ3 devices still only has 64mb RAM.

As your signature said, you already switched to S60, I hope you are pretty happy with that and your platform will improve a lot because Sony Ericsson dropped UIQ. ;)
Btw Z10 has a much better CPU than the SE smart phones, so lets see, maybe Motorola has some new ideas for Z11. Touchscreen and more ram could be enough to show something better than Nokia did with its iTube :)

Theres no doubt that SE killed the best smart phone OS IMO...i have used my friend's iphone,s60 nokias,linux motos and what not...but UIQ was the best i found.
P990 was a very good phone even with crippled hardware(CPU) ,but SE stopped software support for it and drove away a lot of P series fans. I have learnt to live with it..but am not happy with it.
I was thinking of buying the next uiq4 smartphone from SE...?? hikaru (paris was crap) , but the announcement of symbian foundation changed my ideas.. why buy a OS which is dying...software developers wont have much interest in it..but am sure SE will put the best hardware to sweeten the deal.
Also SE's faith in HTC with X1 makes me look at HTC's own phones, also G1 which seems very promising...but i will wait for android to mature.
RIP UIQ
i will miss it.

The right move IMO. Move onto a OS that people like using i.e S60
I prefer UIQ, and a lots of us as well.
apparently not enough to save it

UIQ was all SE. Moto might have a couple of them as well, but i can sell more home made lemonade than the amount they sold Z10
