@ Gcane93 -- My provider is also T-Mobile. I currently have the P910i, which I also bought unlocked from Expansys. Set up was easy with the SonyEricsson online configuration. That isn't up yet for the P990, but you can also just ask T-Mobile for the settings. It doesn't look like my phone is going to ship today, so hopefully I'll get it next week. If you get yours and need any help with the configuration, you can PM me and I'll try to help you out. It should have the same settings as your K750 and my P910.
@chriswg52: Thanks for the advise and offer. I will try to PM you if I get in to trouble with the configuration.

Nope cause a friend is upgrading and she is a high user on Vodafone. She can get it for about that price and i'll give her the money and maybe my fairly bashed up K800!

Someone may prove me wrong but I'm fairly sure it does not support them - I rechecked the whitepaper. MP4, 3GP and RM (Realmedia) are supported.

Assuming same system as m600, no it does not.

Got my P990 today from Expansys and it crashes every 5 minutes. The only way I can get it to restart is to reinstall the firmware via SEUS. What a disappointment:-(

OK US CREATONS! THis info is for you. So please READ!
Now for SE to release the P990"A" it MUST be tested & APPROVED by the FCC ... which hasnt happened yet UNLESS we all missed it when the P990i was tested. If we DO see a P990a I'm pretty sure it'll have EDGE but NO N.A. UMTS.
Is this different from what you're talking about?

NP.
Perhaps I should've been more clear. For a phone manufacturer to produce & ship a phone - it must meet stringent tests. If the phone is going to have ANY GSM bands used in North & South America - 850/1900Mhz GSM/GPRS/EDGE then if MUST be approved by the US' FCC organization. That said, the current P990i is allowed to be shipped & used on ANY N/S American provider. This also applies if it has 850/1900Mhz UMTS for North/South (N/S) America as well.
Now, as for the Rumored, yet not official P990a we'll still have to wait and see. Just a new testing for 850Mhz GSM/GPRS/EDGE radio module will be simple enough. However, for UMTS to be in the 850/1900Mhz design may require a completely new chipset and will undergo a serious stringent testing by the FCC (Canada also has their organization but the name slips my mind). For all we all know the P990a may already be tested, but until its approved SE could delay its official announcement all they want.
> in the mean time I think I'm gonna pickup an SE w810 (in white preferably).
btw,
hi-mobile.net ships all their phones from Hong Kong and usually arrives in 2 business days. I've done business with them before and was impressed. I got screwed by FedEx as their tried to charge me for expedited shipping fo rmy previous K750i; but it was already covered by Hi-Mobile.net.
