BlackBerry Connect now preloaded on Sony Ericsson P1i

Damian Koh | Nov 22, 2007

Mobile email warriors, rejoice! The BlackBerry Connect software v4.0 will now come preloaded on the Sony Ericsson P1i in several Asia-Pacific countries including Australia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand.

Some of the additional features supported in this version are enhanced attachment capabilities, remote access to corporate email address directory, Internet/intranet access via the BlackBerry Mobile Data System and remote control of email settings. There's no additional cost for existing P1i users to download the client. According to Sony Ericsson, installing the application requires approximately 4MB of free space and it should not affect fully certified Symbian-signed software that's already on the handheld. However, as with all software updates, it’s always a good practice to ensure that your data in the device is properly backed up before installation.

Users of the M600i and P990i are not left in the lurch as well. They, too, can download BlackBerry Connect at Sony Ericsson's product support page here and here, respectively.
