Salutations,

I've had my P900 for a month or so now, it is a tremendous phone.

I've rememved the flip, just for space saving as it's quite bulky in it's case.
I was wondering if anyone has found any advantage in keeping the flip on? Is it just a personal thing or am I not getting full functionality?

Regards!

Ive had my P900 for 3 months, i have also removed the flip, the only advantage is that it is easier to dial and that you can use predictive text.

You can download the large number pad which makes it quite a lot easier to dial in virual flip mode...

Do you think predective text is faster than the stylus? With a bit of practice I think the stylus will win!

the flip does offer some degree of protection to your screen This message was posted from a P800

This also applies to P900, i think.

I prefer the P900 with the flip removed, but there seems to be a fault with my phone as back on the jog dial doesn't work in flip removed mode, which is just too annoying for me, so I had to put the flip back on.

The biggest advantage in keeping the flip on is that -

IT LOOKS MUCH BETTER IMHO

Ps - Before some smart ass comments on my avatar - The P900 avatar looks better without the flip

@ johnmcl7

I removed my flip yesterday to give it a try out, and I have the same problem! - the back on the thumb wheel doesn't work as it does with the flip attached. It only seems to be when the phone has the screen saver on. Once your 'in' the phone using it, the back seems fine. But you can't use it to unlock...

I'm a little glad its not just me!
