We like:
Wi-Fi and 3G support; good business applications; good camera
We don't like:
Confusing user interface; weird keyboard layout; short battery life

Second battery
CNET UK judgement:
The P1i is certainly not short on features. It has brilliant connectivity, a good range of onboard office tools and some impressive extras like its business card scanner software. The clunky user interface and weird keyboard layout, however, make it more difficult to use than competing smart phones
