What colour is your P905i?

was gonna go for a white...but then the screen on the front cover can be seen quite clearly..i kind of like the fact that on the red/pink gold/black color, the screen blends in nicely with the front cover

planning to get a blue F905i though..hehe

I was advised the build quality on the P905 is a bit flimsy & not as good as the N905i & the like, when you can could you give some feedback on this issue?

It feels quite firm and strong to me as far as i know. I would say that Nokia N95 (not the 8GB) one feels more loose than p905i.

i'll probably be able to give you more feedback on it by the time i get the phone.

But if you check out the clips on youtube, you can probably see that it looks quite good man.

It is today that you are expecting to get your P905i?

do you want me post pics or sth? (after i get it working, of course!) LOL

Yep. Any pictures taken with it will be useful for people.

How works your P905i with i-smartsim2008?

Thanks for answer (@ all members, excuse for little chat)

i dont know if theres anyway we can set the settings of the phone to prevent this..but i doubt it...and today..my phone completely lost the signal once..but i just simply turned off and switched it on again..and it was fine... ^_^
