I got my P990I on Orange yesterday and it was activated today!!!!!
I am VERY happy with it. I like what Orange have done with the main screen as well. I am amazed at how easy it is to use, MUCH MUCH better then I thought. I don't find it too bulky either. It's a way cool gadget. I can't find any themes I like yet though so shall have to keep looking and I was wondering if the Martyn Fields screen protector is any good? Should I use a screen protector at all??
Thanks from a very happy P990I owner!!!!

I'm puzzled about something on the P990i (and yes I've looked in the manual, it's not there).
Just under the camera button on the right side of the device there is a little opening that is actually covered. At first I had thought that it might be a micro USB connector that SE eventually decided not to use and covered, I needed a magnifying glass to see what it actually is. The strange thing is, when you switch on the camera, it actually lights up for a short time!! This seems to be the only action it ever does. What on earth is it and what is it used for, does anyone know?
And I thought I had gotten to know the P990 pretty well

...For good or bad, this device still keeps on surprising me...

You are making me really jealous too
I called the SE service centre on this issue on call logs, they told me
that its a software issue. Once you upgrade the phone, it should work fine. I m facing the same problem too. Hope this help...

makbil, That is the camera LED light. Most SE handsets have the LED for the camera shutter button integrated into the switch, but on the P990i it sits next to the button. Presumably the idea is to show, 1. that the camera is activated, and 2. in the dark lights up the shutter button.
It really doesn't serve any functional purpose as such though - it is really just cosmetic.

Yea that little camera light is wierd, surely that huge square screen with "initialising camera" & then the fact that u can see the screen is a viewfinder are pretty good clues that the camera is on.
Why put a pointless light on the phone but then forget to put one touch "speakerphone on" icon on the screen or an "&" symbol button on the qwertty keyboard.
Also, although i realy like this P990 more & more i use it, i think SE messed up by not intergrating GPS on the phone, if i could talk SE into anything it would be to produce a GPS add on, that fits on where the removable flip cover screws on. they could have taken off infra red to make a bit of space for GPS inside, nobody uses IR do they ?
I know i know MORE battery drain LOL

Yes, it is very good (and easy to put on) and yes, you should definitely use one.

@ Jejoma,
Cheers buddy, I ordered one from the company itself so will probably take a while to arrive. I have started to use my fingers a bit so I agree I need a protector.

@nicole
What do you mean? The theme or the shortcut?
If it is the theme, you can simply change the theme to the "Porcelain" one.
Go to Control Panel, Device, Themes and choose "Porcelain".
If it is the shortcut, you can determine which shortcuts to appear and its position. In flip closed and standby mode, press "More" then Shortcuts.
