Which to get? Nokia E61i or SE P990 or SE P1?

i'm trying to determine which is the right phone for me. Nokia E61i, SE P990 or SE P1

there are issues with all 3 phones i've mentioned.

Nokia E61i is rather large
SE P990 is dated and doesn't have EDGE (Tmobile USA), but it's cheaper
SE P1 won't have EDGE, but will be a little bit smaller

i guess the biggest factor for me is phone size, and that includes phone thickness as well. but i will need to use the device for the following:

web browsing, google maps, email and the occasional picture or video

i rely pretty heavily on google maps and web browsing, especially when out and about or on vacation. i don't want to carry a laptop with me to research items when shopping, or when using google maps for directions.

the other significant issue is data speed. neither of the SE phones have EDGE, which we rely heavily upon here in the USA on Tmobile's network. so the big question is anyone using the SEP990 with Google Maps and compare against another EDGE enabled phone? how slow is the GPRS?

thanks,

-matt

GPRS is going to be very slow. Get the E61i. The p990 isn't that great and the P1 is probably going to have bugs when its first released.
