it depends on what you want to use it for. Do you want a phone with PDA function (P910i) or a PDA with phone functions (xda). The XDA is bigger than the

but is more powerful as a PDA where as the

works better as a phone that can do most things that a PDA can with a smaller screen.

I have now both owned a P910i/S700i (big fan of SE phones) and am now a delighted owner of a XdaIIi. There is no competition in my opinion. Yes the XdaIIi is somewhat larger, but then that comes with many advantages also, being a portable PC and all that! The P910i was a great idea, but they seriously messed up with a 150 MHZ processor! MP4 playbackin full screen was crap and the only viable alternative was to use a third party software program called smartmovies (which looked promising but also turned out to be crap).
In my humble opinion, the XdaIIi far outclasses and performs the P910i. Plus it doesnt have a poxy flip keypad and delicate screen wjich can be easily damaged.
The XdaIIi's specs speak for themselves, check this link:
http://www.my-xda.com/xda2i_spec.html.
The P910i just wasnt up 2 scratch for me (but then I do like to use these gadgets for entertainment as well as business!)
The XdaIIi supports so many different movie formats that u can convert your DVD's into MPEG1 easily and quickly and play them back on your PC or Your pocket PC @ 240x320 resolution (superb quality @ 512 kbps encoding in Tsunami MPEG Encoder)....I could go on.
All said and done, I impatiently await the P1000/P950 from Sone Ericcson, which will hopefully adress all the P910i's shortcomings. Until the I will remain loyal to whichever manufacturer brings the consumer the best technology and not the one who has an excellent reputation based on other produced technologies.
Final word:
If You want a really good phone with excellent photo taking capabilities, wait for the W, or K750 or even the yet unspoken of new S700i, however if you , like me, enjoy true flexibilty and quality is of paramount importance, a PPC like the XdaIIi is, for me, unquestionably the only choice........for now.
