Nanu, the fact is that the "direct replacement" for the P990 is the P1. It's quite literally replacing it on the market, in the coming quarter. It will take the place of the P990 on the SE shelf.
What you're actually talking about is the "spiritual successor" to the P990, the phone which will assume the technological lead over SE's smartphones at some later date (possibly the first quarter of next year). That phone will not directly replace the P990, because there won't be any P990's left to replace; it will simply compliment the P1, W960, and whatever other UIQ phones may be announced in the meantime.

It is not I who posed the question, I am not interested in the P1i spiritually or otherwise, for me as a P990i user the P1i is not the replacement for the P990i.
If people could stick to the original question at hand instead of posting about the W960i and P1i this thread would be a better place.
And Merlyn101 might get an answer to the question at hand.
We are all aware of the P1i's existance and the placement in the line up of se's phones, that is not what is in question here.

P1 is going to be less expensive than W960 i think, basing them to the features. W960 is ahead a bit of the P1. though personally i like this approach in which i'll gonna have two great SE options to choose to succeed my M600
imho get the P1.

P1i is not a P990i replacement!
SE have always marketed P-series as a 'Phone-PDA'(phone first), whereas P1i is more pure PDA without the flipkeypad. The true successor would still have a flip, which would also keep the P-series as the only 'modular' phone on sale I can think of(i.e: one you can actually physically modify the device without nullifying the warranty)......
Perhaps, it'll look like this......
Regardless, no flip.....no P-series....

p1 and w960 are the new m600 and w950 pair....... p990 was placed above these (m600,w950) , so the p990 successor is still to come obviously, will be higher spec'd of course (compared to p1/w960). that is if it ends up being like the m600,w950,p990 chain......
