You can see they're good at business (i'll give you ?300 for it, give us ?20 and it's yours lol), i guess they've got customer satisfaction

must be because you gave them no trouble at all accepting their offer

well I don't like to take the piss and make demands above my station so as soon as they offered me what I thought was fair I was happy to accept

Review: I so love the P990! WLAN is working a treat btw, I'm pleased.

It's hung quite a few times already though, and it takes about 5 mins for it to boot

Cam seems pretty ok. Rest of stuff yet to try

In short: good old SE Symbian phone, would be fantabulous if only the phones OS would be less challneging

I'm happy with it though, can work with the keyboard pretty easily (got flip off).

BTW who in the world thought it would be OK to charge 60 euros for a mobile phone application???

Think I'll be lookin for free apps now

your review doesn't make it sound to good vlammy, to be honest

Well the time it takes to start up is fecking awful tbh, and I REALLY hate it's foze up 5 times already (in a week!!!) however it seems to be doing better now. (It had better or it's risking to get up close and personal with my wall one good day

)

Apps are fecking expensive, something I had forgotten all about since going the linux way....

Screen is fantabulous, I dearly love having touchscreen again. Cam is good, sound playback is good.

I tried updating fw but of course the whle thing times out after 15 mins (out of 20..) so need to redo that. Need to locate the flip first though as I have no 'C' button without it

I have yet to figure out a great number of things, such as 'how do i go into the service menu' without the flip

One thing REALLY bothers me though! There's a hardware 'back' button to the side of the phone. It just so happens that I take phonecalls on my left ear, and have the phone in my left hand, which would place my thumb dangerously near said button! Based on previous results: the 'back' button works awfully well, it can end your calls for you

As I have to really find my way around this phone I guess I could say the fw does not appear to be as intuitive as 'regular' SE fw, but of course this could also be due to me having used said regular fw for far too long. I'd probably have as much trouble gettin used to Nokia for example

Nope I think I'll just hang on to it. I quite like it, in spite of its flaws
