Isn't SE P910i symbian?
It's symbian. See here *www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_p910-846.php
AFAIK, 'P' series from SE are all symbian.

Lots of softwares exist for P910i. Though not as much as the ones available for Series 60 phones of Nokia. SE uses series 60 UIQ for P series phones AFAIK.

How old are these phones,coz i think all of 'em are slighty overpriced...
in my opinion gofor p910i its a symbian UIQ based phone.... though keep in mind that comparitively less apps are available for this platform..
Older series 60 apps won't work on it..
and yes whole p series frm SE uses Symbian UIQ... latest one frm SE i.e. P990i uses Symbi UIQ 3.0

2000000 (N90) vs 307200 (se) pixels huge diff.

I saw them on rediff. whn i chckd out da local market, Gaffar Market,Karol Bagh, New Delhi, i found that N 70 was retailing for abt 12K. the phn lookd gud bt Gaffar market is very ill reputed place to get phones even though it seems the largest hub for mobiles here in Delhi.
Any advices????
