P1i | November build's got issues

My phone P1i. It's good. But I almost had the 21k go down the drain. You wouldn't believe the first P1i piece that I got stopped working in a matter of a day. That's ridiculous! The first P1i was unbelievably slow, when I added a few basic apps it became all the more worse, like may be UBUNTU running on 64MB RAM. The worse thing was that on the third day itself, the touch screen stopped responding on the most important areas. Like the areas where you have to tap to receive calls, send messages, etc.

I luckily, fortunately, went on the third day to the showroom for replacement. To have a new phone replaced I have to return it within 3 days, company policies!. Well, I was just lucky to get there on the third day evening!! :-)

But, the second piece I received is just awesome. It's really fast compared to the first one. Absolutely no complaints.

This calls for a comparison! The only difference both the P1i phones had was that the first, screwed up phone I had was a November build and the current, ideal P1i I am having is of an August build. The then market price(August) for the phone was 24.5, but the market price in November dropped to 22.5. The firmwares were the same though. I thoroughly believe that Sony dropped their hardware configs with the price. My friends too told that some industries do that. Especially P1i being a total geeky phone, not meant for the masses, stands a perfect candidate.

Well, Right now I am glad I got it replaced. The phone, apart from all the nifty things it can do, gives me an attitude when I use it.

Yeah! You know what I'm talk'n abt!!!
