PDAs, Cellphones, Wireless This phone could be placed by some as the most advanced smartphone to date (only some new, unreleased yet, PocketPC-phones come close in terms of features): Sony Ericsson announced the P990, based on Symbian 9.1. It supports UMTS, GSM/GPRS/3G, WiFi, Bluetooth, IrDA and it has an FM radio. It sports a 2.8" QVGA touchscreen, 80 MBs free storage, a 64 MB MemoryStickPRODuo (expandable to 4 GB), Blackberry Push Email, a QWERTY keyboard, and two cameras: a 2 MP on the back and a VGA on the front. For web browser it uses Opera 8.x.

>It has all sorts of advanced stuff too, but unlike this SonyEricsson PDA, *calling* is still the central functionality of the device.

I really don't know why you think this P990 does not have the same thing. Just because it has super-additional functionality, it does not make it a non-phone. I think you are unfair here, because the main input panel is the numeric one, not the keyboard. And the UIC's central menu is all about calling too.
