Hi-Mobile.net sent us in the Sony Ericsson P990i for our monthly phone review. This popular smartphone was released last summer, but a new firmware of Symbian's UIQ 3.0 was released just 15 days ago and this is with what we mainly tested. The P990i sells for just $340 these days, fully unlocked, and it has a barrage of high-end features.

The reviewer commented the Sony Ericsson P990i supports 3G at 2100 MHz but that it's not supported in USA. I was under the impression the USA carriers T-Mobile and AT&T offered 2100 MHz 3G (HSDPA).
Anyway, for the readers I suggest a better alternative which is the HTC TYTN sold by carriers such as Rogers here in Canada. The device supports GSM/GPRS 850/900/1800/1900 MHz and HSDPA 850/1900/2100 MHz. It also offers a full slide out keyboard, WIFI and dual cameras for video conferencing or mobile chat.
