Found I've been using this facility more and more on my P910.

So much so that I've been shopping round for W800/900.

I know full well that its truly a business phone, but have they improved the music player on the P990, as the P910 is pretty cr@ppy ?

Yes, me three, using PowerMP3 on my P910i with 1GB Pro DUO and the music quality is excellent. Only issues is when multitasking, the are bound to be crackling sound.

P990i's Philips's Nexperia PNX4008 application processor comes with Audio DSP and hence this problem should be history

Michal from my-symbian has a beta P990i unit and confirms his beta unit is free from this issue too:

The software in the new P990 works more like in the W800 and K750 with categorization into "Artist", "Album" etc.

That is, more "iPod like"

I'm also a happy PowerMP3 user and have suggested the programmer of PowerMP3 to add this kind if functionality to the player.

In the past he has been very good in listening to his customers, so let's keep our fingeres crossed.

In the meantime, if you are not using PowerMP3 on your P-series, I suggest you purchase a license to support development and get yourself a much better MP3, Ogg or AAC experience on your phone

cheers
Peter

I tried PowerMP3 on evaluation, but I wasn't too impressed. It didn't seem to be too well integrated with the rest of the phone, unlike the built-in player. In FC mode, for instance, how do you switch to another app such as Messaging when PowerMP3 is running? How do you switch to another folder's (ie, album's) worth of tracks?

Maybe I missed something -- if any PowerMP3 users out there can suggest an answer, I'd be grateful.

I do not use the flip, hence unable to help much. But a quick check using virtual flip shows I am able to access "Applications" when PowerMP3 is playing in Flip Closed mode. From "Applications" menu, I can go "Messages". Does this helps?

Cheers
