> In reply to Hermit @ 2009-11-17 20:49 from 2Ap6yes i think it has lock code coz im using p990i and you just have to go to tools, control panel, security, locks, and you have to click the box beside inactivity lock and you will be ask for your password. i hope that would help you. and also, you can download advanced file lock wherein you can lock a specific application or content that you don't want to access by anyone, for example you can lock the messaging or picture gallery etc. once you click the application that you locked using advanced file lock you will be ask for a password. you can download it for 30 day - free trial or you can purchase it online. :)

> In reply to Kamran @ 2009-11-16 19:58 from prm}It is really sad to hear that you feel this way about the P1i. I am a SE p1i user, I would like to tell you that I see differently to what you ve been going on about. Firstly this Phone has 208mhz processor it will be slow if you overload the internal memory, store all your applications and data on your external memory (m2 card) and your phone will run like the wind. Secondly you are complaining about it taking too long getting to the applications you use, tell me what those home screen Icons there for? They are customisable for you to switch any Icon u dont use for the one u use frequently allowing you quick access to your applications... I believe it is better to ask before judging. SE P1i is the king...

Does this phone have code lock like Nokia? Code lock is different from "Keypad lock" , you need to enter the right number coding before you can access the main features of the phone.. It is an added security feature from Nokia. So does this phone have "code lock?"

As a classic fan of SE, using this brand for 4 yrs, I should say P1 is a disaster!
Its awfully SLOW.
All the credits that SE gained buy its easy and qiuck menus is lost in this model.
It's amazing how SE was able to ruin pleasant taste of a phone like K750 this bad!
In K750 you could reach to all corners of the phone by 2 or 3 clicks, all incoming BT messages was automatically saved in proper folder ...
I really couldn't figure out why SE designers have decided to use Nokia's stupid way of organizing BT messages and phone menues !!
On the other hand, I sholud say it is very good looking and it's keyboard design is nice.
BUT...!!!

I've had the P1i since it was released in the market 2 yrs ago and I must say this is a very good phone in terms of efficiency (word, excel, pdf)storage capacity, camera and sounds quality. Downsides are: difficult for texting, phone hangs up once in a while, esp when travelling to other location, difficulty in sending picture thru mms, slow response for the user interface. U also need to take very good care of the touch screen since it scratches easily

I love my P1 (apart from when it crashes)
Shame the apps are getting a little limited now, and the media player could do with some polishing.
Also, never managed to get the online media player working and I still can't play Youtube.
Despite it's media downfall it's a fantastically proficient phone / organiser / internet communicator.

P1i was the greatest phone I had had till date. I used it for 2 years. I have upgraded to a Samsung now that SonyEricsson stopped producing Good all-round phones like in its starting career with T100, T230, K750 and P1i.

Very disappointed to here the cancellation of "p5i" with 5MP camara and gps. Please revamp the P5i with:
* 3" Screen with HD resolution.
* Accelometer
* Atleast 5MP or 8MP Autofocus with Xenon flash Camera.
* aGPS and real time navigation.
* Kinetic scrolling.
* M600 series keypad with slider form.
* Wi-Fi.
* FM/AM radio with internal antennas or stylus as antenna.
* Gesture Control.
* and at a price around 25k only (respectable but affordable)
