Guys I have been seeing the pics but havent noticed the charging/ miss call indicator light near the charging point on the P1i on G900. Can someone conform if this hardware still exists in the G series? Its one of the best feature by SE.
Yes it does exist on the G900. It is a small light (green) about 1cm below the fastport.

Can't watch any short movie I've transfered from my camera. I've modified the format from mpg to mp4 but the image is stuck on the preview.
Is there a specific format ??
Thanks

I'm really impressed with this phone. I've had P800 (never saw the need to upgrade to P900 / 910) and then an M600.
This phone is much better than M600:
- size
- slim
- fast speed of UI & operation (M600 was so slow)
- stability (no kern exec errors yet)
- interface - the new standby application makes common tasks / key applications really simple to get to.
- usability - you hardly need the stylus. 1 handed operation is so simple.
- hardware buttons for Notes / e-mail make accessing those applications really fast
- no scroll wheel - the button in the middle makes it much simpler to scroll through long e-mails, web pages etc
- GPRS connection remains connected. For whatever reason, on M600 the active sync connection would just stop working and then you'd have to re-boot the phone to get it going again. No problems here. Push e-mail working seamlessly and switching between GPRS and WiFi has not presented any problems.
- ergonomics - the overall layout of the device feels spot on - especially for one handed operation
What don't I like:
- battery cover doesn't seem like a very snug fit.
- the speaker doesn't seem as good as previous products (seems very crackly / distorts when on calls). Of course that may just be mine.
- handwriting doesn't seem anywhere near as good as on M600 or P800. This may just be as a result of the new surface of the screen - but on both the other phones i used to able to write accurately and quickly.
All in all very impressed. I do miss the qwerty of the M600.
I think if Paris has the same UI speed and same touch interface, then that should be a great phone.

I got the phone last tuesday. IMO the UI is ok, not to slow but i don't like the current icons, and the size of the phone is great also. But don't expect much from the camera though. The pictures produced are kinda like k550i, where its like washed or has that watercolor-like finish to it.
Like the previous UIQ phones it can be hacked
*oh yeah tried to play youtube, and it was great too...

I also got the 'dust' problem with my G900.
After three days there is already some dust behind the screen (or between the touchscreen and lcd).
There is also some dust in the front-camera.
I was wondering if there are people on this forum owning a G900 who have been carrying it around for a few days in there pocket and do not have a single dust particle in the front camera or behind the screen??
If that is the case, then my G900 could be one of the few having this problem so returning it to the shop and getting a new one could resolve the whole issue.
If not, there could be a bigger issue with this model...

Mm. That was the first thing I thought when I saw the design with the extra screen bit on the top to cover the front camera..

Few problems:
kern exec errors. They appear when writing an sms or using notes for example. Annoying as hell.
Dust....oh yes. I have noticed too dust under the screen.

Does the G900 have a Blackberry Client available?
If not can anyone suggest alternates (I am open to non SE phones) that have a numeric keypad, good camera, and a touch screen.
BTW the pen supplied with the G900 rather short are there any 3rd party pens available that can fit in the same slot but extend to become about 2" longer?
sorry to repost this but I felt the beautiful photos posted might have distracted some from replying to my earlier post.
I liked the size of the G900 and I know it has email. can this email utility be configured to access email like my P990i's blackberry client?
check the G900 support page for the Blackberry Client, if there isnt one on there yet give the most recent P1 version a go (found on the P1 support page).

...probably won't work. It's fused into SE's implementations, so any new firmware will most likely need a few bb client changes (they didn't carry over from version to version on the p1 either).
