SAQ - Seldom Asked Question?

Read the SAQ on the first page as "Seldom Asked Question". It turned out, later on, to mean something far less amusing.

Best Quote

My favourite bit of his speech is quoted by the bbc (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/7291315.stm): "Personally, I'd eat the arse out of a dead mole if it offered a fighting chance."

Sony Ericsson P990i smart phone

Gave Up Waiting

I waited for about 6 months for the P990 to be released, but eventually gave up and got an Orange SPV M3100 instead. After my experience of using the M3100 and the reviews I have read of the P990 I think I have made the right decision. I owned a P900 and P910 and found them both reliable and usable (well, until dropped into a swimming pool), but the 990 seems to dropped many of the features I liked, especially the five-way jog dial. With the distinguishing features gone why choose a 990 over any of the other devices on the market?
