It's finally been released here in New Zealand, is anyone using it?

I've finally got it after waiting since the beginning of the year.......now I find SonyEricsson don't support Mac users.

The software updates online and the packaged software , syncing CD is PC only!

Luckily we have the latest software in this release, but what will i do when it needs upgrading, and it already does... buggy as hell.

First days are so hard.

I thought the Sony Ericsson P900 and P990 could be updated over the air?

Sony Ericsson didn't provide much Mac support anyway... most it appeared to come with the Operating system (10.4) and its sync app Isync.

Does that work the P990 or do you need a updated client app for syncing?

Isync works with p900 and p910 but doesn't work work with the p990.........yet, holding my breath the new SE and apple software releases there might be some updates.

I have been using bluetooth to keep my contacts updated, bit sad really.
