Stephen Fry, the actor, writer, playwrite, presenter, wit, comedian and all round good guy is also a gadget freak technophile.
His blog has a mini review of all the smartphone systems available at the moment as well as the iPhone. His comments on the P1i, and the UIQ software in particular, are quite interesting and I thought that other forum members here might like to see for themselves.
A little snippet;
It’s an M600i running Symbian v 9.1 and UIQ v 3.0 equipped with a camera and WiFi.. That’s it. No attempt has been made to alter the UI or the OS. The result: the clumsiest, most asinine method of internet connection ever devised (yes it has a wizard to download your network’s APN etc., but that’s not enough) comes unaltered, the bugginess and the slowness too have all have been inherited, and the short battery life. Did they really think slinging on a 3.2MP camera and WiFi would make a desirable device, let alone an iPhone killer?

Interesting comments from a very acute guy. He seems a little muddled about what SonyEricsson is which mind you (lol). It must also be said that UIQ and EPOC go hand in hand together
