guys, i have a bit of problem here......

I just bought a Sandisk 1GB MS card from a forummer(second hand)....

Computer with card reader
i cant format it with my card reader (cycle redunduncy error)....but i can format it with my M600i....

My card reader can access the M2 card, but cannot create new folders, cannot add or delete files....all with errors...

When M2 is in m600i
when i put the card into my m600i, i connect it via cable, i can add, delete, create new folders, everything....

i can move files from my phone to card and from my card to phone...

So i thought it's the M2 adapter faulty....BUT

i cant create folder in my phone, an exclamation mark comes out...no error message, just and exclamation mark....

so what's the problem?? M2 Card? Phone? M2 card adapter? Card reader?

i connect the M2 card in this manner...

M2 card-->M2 MS Pro Duo Adapter-->MS Adapter--->Memory Reader (Dell 2405FPW monitor)

Using this with my ori 64mb card, i can do everything.....so i still dunno if it's the M2 problem or the adapter prob...

I am using HBH-GV435, it sound better, clearer and louder compare to my old HBH-608. But the buttons position is kinda odd. I am still getting use to it.

1. Ya the battery life of P990i is average, if there is  any activity on your phone during midnight, exm: sms, mms, miss call, reminder and etc. The green lights will blink fast to gain your attention which will drain the battery even faster.
2. Some suggested that by using Tweak Peak (Disable the transition effect) and Swiss Manager/Pro will make P990i performance better. For my case, I have uninstall both applications because I had more problem when both applications installed.

I've found out a trick here, if you click the shortcut and calender icon (the most left icon when flip open) often, it will decrease the RAM amount available which leads to auto restart even if you have Swiss Manager/Pro installed. Avoid clicking the icon will make your phone performance much much more faster and stable.

3. Yes you are using Singapore Chinese enable set like mine here, the firmware is kinda old, the last update was back at mid of February.

These are some of my comments and experiences. Hope it helps !!

You can't compare the N80 IE or the N95 with P990i.

P990i is a whole different class by itself.

It's a PDA business phone. Not a multimedia gadget.

I'm a P990i owner myself, I dun really agree with your statement, the N95 is in a different class, the camera, multimedia functions (including VGA video recording), true 16-bit colour screen, etc ...... are some of the strong features of the phone. A P990i should be compared with something like Nokia's N80 IE.

Guys, not too sure if this is a problem or not.

I ran a service test on my P990i, when I test the display, I only get flickering black lines on the left instead of the usual Red Green Blue panels.

I did the same test on my M600i and W850i and they're running fine with the RGB panels.

You can update your firmware with the Sony Ericsson Update Service (SEUS) by yourself which cost you nothing. 

Many users including me had upgrade it and it's working fine here.
Just that you need to reinstall every single application after you update the firmware. 
chen9wei , I dont think the P990 is heavy though. It's kind of light if compare to the ugly N91. 

I just noticed that 6600 is even larger than the P990. 

Really ? Cause i am going to get the Itech Clip Radio too. Maybe in singapore. Can anyone tell me the price between Kl and Singapore ? Cause i am going both the place soon.
Lol. After you said like this, i feel the phone is bulky no more. Have anyone of you try to remove the keypad before ? Is this will void the warranty ?

i'm looking for its leather holster...the p900 holster only can fit the p990 if i remove the keypad which i don't want too...

the leather holster i'm looking for must not have any belt clip behind..i just want to put my phone in and put it into my pocket...
