Which Issue of PDA Essentials?

i need everybody opinion....im thinking to buy p990i...that's a seller wanna sell it out at RM1450 (AP full set 1 month used)...do u all think its worth it??

To all  bros,

Im a newbie here. Just got my P990i Set Two Weeks ago. Upgraded from a P910i and P900i. So I can give some comparisions here.
I got myself a Singapore Generic set because the price of the Ori Set from S.E was way too expensive. Previous two sets were ori sets but this time, the price difference of about RM750 was too much already.

I upgraded to the latest firmware from the Official Online S.E Update Centre. No probs for me. Flash the Updated the software to CXC 162037 R9EA001. So far so good. Lesser restarts and probs. The phone runs much faster already.  U must always try to free up memory by using the task manager and close applications that you are not using. I also free up some internal memory by deleting the demos in the phone.
One of the downsides of the phone is that the internal memory seems to be smaller than of the P910i. Could someone explain the reason for this? Also the sound quality from the P990i is somehow poorer than the P910 though it has polyphonic capabilities.
One the bright side, the the bright side is that the Camera is much better compared to the P910i. I also love the WIFI function. The battery comsuption is as usual, just like its predecessors....could only last a day.
The display is much better. At first didnt like the way the phone functions, but after some getting used to, it seems more efficient than the P910.
Overall, I think the phone is great. Definite a worthy phone to buy. Dont say Im biased though Im a P Series Die Hard Fan. I think the phone just needs some more time to develope.

One Question though to all Sifus here, Im Using Celcom 3G. The thing I noticed is Signal Strength on my phone seems weaker than other phones like the K700i. When they have 5 Bars of line, sometimes I will only have 4 bars. Does the P990i have weaker signal strength or does the phone have problem? Anybody faced this problem before? Im geting worried bout this.
Also my Area Information on Channel 50 dont seem to work anymore. It used to work before I flashed to the new firmware. Anyone could answer my these two questions.

Thank You.

I've read so many post regarding AP set having problem updating the firmware thru internet, wonder how true are those posts? I am thinking of getting an AP set here.

never experienced buying from her...
erksss...bad comments on her...don't really know about that cases...
where you checked that comments?would have to look if its true...

anyway...about late replying on her topic is true...PM or sms not so sure...
if not mistaken...she's doing this kind job as part-time as she also a student that need to study and doing assignment/projects and homework right?...
have you checked with fruitie?

darn..how nice if could use this on my M600i..   

I am too considering getting a P990i (as the Motorola E6 is pretty well overpriced now , considering it has no 3G and WI-FI)

If I'm getting it, I'm going for AP, saving ~RM800 is not a small amount, and so far I have yet to see any of my frns P910i LCD broken before, I hope the quality of the LCD and touchscreen is similar at the P990i.

Just want to clarify something, what is the most current firmware (stable one) out now? Should I go for Generic set? Because I must confirm all these details before asking my frn to get it from his supplier.

Anything else that I must pay attention on?

Will phone memory be a big problem with running applications?

Just called Clareen, according to her Malaysia will ban AP set starting 1st of April, which means those company that offer AP warranty will be forced to close door, leads to anything happens to AP set HP, "eat ourself"

Dunno how true is this, can someone confirm this?

guys..just feel like changing phones again. thought of swapping my M600i with a N80IE. is it a good idea? just kinda bored with my baby. miss having a camera phone.

Indeed, if P700 really does come out, I'm really interested to get it.

Yeah what puts me off from getting M600 or W950 was the lack of WiFi.. hopefully the specs are true.

Same here. 

Nope, to me my phone is alright. P700i is too good to be true if it is packed with 3.2M camera with autofocus. Also, the design is better than P990i. 

some forummers in LYN selling off their M600i for only RM500-700. darn. no more 2nd hand value for the phone. *sigh*

Thanks buddy.
Anyway , i think that P990i is way better than N95 minus GPS and High Megapixels Camera. 

Bla bla bla bla bla , I'm lovin it.   

works perfectly on your p990i?...no laggy?
erksss...in LYN selling for that price?...
hoping the Ori-set price also drop in near-future...

Yup since both had its strength and weakness and honestly the p990i is super worth at the rm1175 price tag. I dont think any other model can offer the similiar functionality of p990i with the similiar price tag
