Which would be a better option

Wonder if anyone could help.

I had a P910i. Brilliant phone. :icon14:
I upgraded to a P990 (thought that if the P910i was good the P990 would be better... WRONG!! :icon13: )

This phone is a P.O.S.
Its slow.
It wont back up.
It hangs often. (so bad I have to remove the battery to restart it)
It will shut itself down when I recieve a call and then tell me "the phone has been restarted to improve performance".
It has recently decided that it is not going to make any sounds (no ringing, message tones, speaker phone, nothing)
And it is having issues with my bluetooth headset...
😡

I have gotten to the point where Im going to get another phone, I cannot live with these problems.

Question:
Which is a better bet as a replacement?
The Sony Ericsson P1, or the Nokia E90.
I had a quick look at a friends Nokia E90 and even though Im not a great Nokia fan, this seems to be a briliant phone. I dont know much about the P1..

Any thoughts or opinions?

Thanks

my P990 did exactly the same thing when I used a pay as you go O2 line in the UK. However, back home on my local network, the phone works perfectly (so far).

Try a different sim card or network. Not sure if it could be due to using a 3G card though.
