I know what I'm missing, and it's nothing I'd use. I'd rather have a phone that is practical to use on a day to day basis for things I use all the time than sacrifice that for the sake of some features I'll use occasionally.
I was also talking about day to day basis usage.
Phone functionality (automated-smart tasks):
For example I can automaticaly reject only calls from you (black list) or accept just calls from you (white list). I can automaticaly send you a busy signal or send you a mail that I am on the important meeting. I can setup that from 10pm till 7am only certain calls will be accepted and after 7am different calls. I can setup that when I enter into a certain building (where is my boss and meetings are held) only so and so can call me and when I go home other calls will be alowed. I can do almost everything with my calls.
Messaging functionality (automated-smart tasks):
For example I can automatically delete messages from you without looking at it. I can automatically delete a message after sending to you so no need for manual delete at all. I can see your message after which it automaticaly goes to a specific folder. I can hide your incoming message so no one can see it. I can be reminded every minute or ten minutes about unread message. I can do almost everything with my messages.
Not to speak about sending end receiving emails with large attachments (excel, pdf, word, zip files, etc.)
So if you think that smartphones are inferior only because opening the message app is a second or two faster on the ordinary phone then I dont think you really know what are you missing.
But at the end I agree that everybody has its own preference so in that matters I respect your opinion.

I decided to buy P1. I will get one in a few weeks for 450 EUR (one year warranty, unbranded). My P990 goes for 250 EUR so I think its a good exchange. At the end I realised that P1 beautifull form factor (I use P990 without flip), 80 mb available RAM, better camera, music track recognition or whatever it is called, 15 shortcuts, good today screen, louder media sound and faster performance is something I wish to go for.
I would actually get it next week but I go on a vacation so I can take it after 25th August. Hardly wait to play with the beast

Hi all. Can anyone point me in the direction of a web page that has a lot of detailed pics of the P1i. Im trying to get a protective full body skin made by shieldzone and they require a web page as opposed to pics emailed to them. From what i understand once they make my custom skin it should become available for every one else

Thanks for the above input, but I'm aware of what I'm 'missing' and although I suppose it would be handy to some, I'd rather my phone could keep up with me, rather than waiting for it to catch up with me. To me, speed is more important than having software functionality. Hardware functionality is a different matter, because if it had WiFi, a decent camera and a high resolution screen, but kept the speed up as it should do then thats fine.

Well it depends to what you compare it to. If you compare it to a normal phone, it can be described as slow.
Well.. "slow" in the sense that it lags randomly if you try to do more than edit a phone- contact... imo, no. Possibly, it's a bit slower when you start the contact list and the "messages" program. But after that, it's really faster and more predictable than any phone I've used a bit (n7360, n6125, w300, k750). And it's the same every time, when you open a program (which is what you'd expect from a properly implemented symbianOS, I suppose, but still).
It boots slower, though.

No it's not slower than the N95. Faster than any N-Series device I've ever used.
