And the SE P1i is finally out
Guess I gotta’ break the silence once again. SE P1i is out and available in UAE. Think about making a phone mix, taking the ugly/bulky P990i and fixing its shortcomings and glitches and melting it down in the shape of the cool M600i, that’s when you get the P1i.
What’s there out for you?
A better P-series in the form of M-series of SE mobiles. Better UIQ operating system, yet not the latest Opera 9, I wish they waited for Opera 9 to come out and then launched the product.
Same old UIQ interface, with the dual letter keypad, the same old jog-dial, brighter touch screen, yet lighter.
As for the price it’s relatively over-priced (AED 2,900) comparing it with the new Nokia E-90 that comes with more featues(at the end of the day Nokia works on Symbian, so you won’t get the goodies of UIQ OS).
No GPS, very very disappointing, BlackBerry service support on the e-mail client side, and for sure, a more stable UIQ.
We’ve built an unofficial microsite for the p1 which is in the process of being launched soon, more on that later.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t UIQ also a Symbian OS?
Both Nokia and SE use Symbian OSes for their higher-end phones, and you can extend both with some interesting applications. The only difference is that E90’s S60 sucks, UIQ doesn’t.
