so be careful and dont drop it! or keep it in a protective case if you are clumsy
accidents will happen with any phone and the damage inflicted can vary depending on how it hits the ground. Even light phones can suffer bad damage

50g? thats a small bar of chocolate... come on now, lets be serious
i am being serious...50g is nothing on a 200, 300g device...but 50g is noticeable on lighter phones...i clearly notice the difference from the P990 to the P1, has an example...

You notice the difference certainly, but that's as far as it goes. I think the point is that in long term use, it makes little or no difference - once you get used to any device, it's weight (unless REALLY excessive) ceases to be a factor.
I was previously used to the very lightweight M600i - lightest of all the UIQ3 phones to date - but a few days after getting the Tytn II, I stopped noticing the difference and just got on with using it. It goes in the same pocket as the M600i, gets used in just the same way, and in practice those extra few grams have had no impact at all.

fair enough. I'll say no more except that I have honestly never given it a thought

After using P1 I realised that there is no way I can go back to bulky phones as P900/P910/P990 again. I wandered about smaller screen but now I see what a pleasure is to use small and ligt phone and 2.6" screen is absolutely fine for browsing, office apps and ebooks. In that terms additional 50gr. and biger size is show stopper in my case. Pocket size is the greatest 'functionality' of my P1 followed with all other features. But thats just me.

I always found the old P-series phones bulky not because of their weight, or even their size exactly, but because of the flip. The flip was always there jutting out the front, catching on pockets etc, and although I'd never want to take it off (IMO too much functionality was lost without it) it did have the effect of making the phones feel quite cumbersome, and overlarge.
The M600i changed all that, being the originator of the P1's flipless, qwerty form factor, and I swore I'd never go back to another bulky phone. I still ended up with the Tytn II though, and I'm happy with it, because despite the extra weight I don't consider it a bulky phone - it fits nicely in the hand or pocket, and it doesn't have a flip or anything else jutting out (the whole phone is smooth and rounded, like a pebble), so in most respects it's just as easy to carry as the M600i.

I believe you Boinng since after using P1 I can see why you always spoke high about M600, you were absolutely rigth about size and qwerty:)
I hope somebody around me will buy TYNT so that I can feel how it fits in the hand and pocket. So far I enjoy P1 so much.

Has any one felt a difference in the call quality between the two handsets
i mean the
1. voice clarity
2. signal reception
3. speaker phone
I know very well that WM is always a pain when used as a phone.

Hmm I'm right now trying to decide wheter to buy the P1 or the Tytn 2. And right now I'm thinking that I can buy a 3 month old P1 for about 400 $ and a 3 month old Tytn 2 for 800 $ so I really am confused...
No companies in Denmark offers the Tytn 2 with a contract for privates so thats the reason why I looked at used prices - not that a 3 month old phone is that used...
As I see at some point of view the only reason I want the Tytn 2 instead of the P1i is because it has built in GPS, and I don't know if that's good enough as a reason - I also would like to try a new OS (have a P900 now) but if the phone part of the Tytn 2 is not that good I have my doubts...
What would you do? And what do you think of my point about the GPS part?

Hmmm... HTC TytnII vs P1i. I must say, I love the P1i, but I don't like the very slow progress of UIQ3. They don't keep users posted on anything, updates, what's upcoming, etc. Also UIQ3 doesn't appear to be an attractive market to 3rd party developers and there's very little being released on the UIQ3 end as compared to S60 and WM. Additionally slower processors, slower WiFI speeds, lack of quad band and other data specific network handling, (HSDPA, EDGE, etc.)
I know I stated here that I'm unsure of a WM device, but I must say the more I read about it, the more impressive this device looks. Also check out this review on the Tytn II:

I'll wait a little bit and see how these markets improve or fall apart, and if WM keeps up, I'm ditching SE. Slow processor on the P1 and then a 12Mhz faster processor on the W960. That's stupid. SE keeps releasing all sorts of devices with one or 2 single updates. Compare p1 to the W960. Basically the same, without the QWERTY keys and with Walkman software. Everything else is pretty much the same. Consider M600 to P1, basic differences again. Essentially they're just trying to get people to buy different versions of the same product. No major innovations, and just minor enhancements. Consider how many models have been released K750, K800 K850... and minor improvements. I would greatly appreciate if they followed the Apple model and put all that time and research into producing one great device. (the Iphone is not great, but for a first product, its pretty darn good, and great enough to shatter market records.)
I hate the SE trend, and I hope someone up the SE ladder is doing some thinking and listening. They really have to stop producing a 100 different devices, and consider focusing energy and innovation on just a few. As a market we can send out a message to SE by not buying new products, but it is hard to organize an effort like that..... oh well....
