I've been using SE P1i for a while now with OSX Tiger, and I'm disappointed. The plugin claims to sync everything, but I've yet to see where the calendar entries end up to. It worked on the first time just fine for the first two syncs or so, after that there was nothing.
My hard disk crashed totally two weeks ago. I purchased a new one, reinstalled Tiger, installed the plugin in a brand new computer, and ended up with the same situation - the system said I had 1159 contacts and 390 calendar entries and asked if I wanted to sync. I said yes, it did something, and the end result was an Addressbook full of contacts, and blank iCal. Oh well.
I'm not too impressed with the phone anyway. It crashes and reboots every week or so "to improve performance". Yeah right, I want it to boot up in the middle of the day for about a minute after which it will ask for both PIN and the security code, and if I haven't checked the screen I might be out of touch for several hours. Usually it's never more than a hour, but still.
When it works, it's slow. VERY slow. I bought it to replace my old 9300i after making an oath never to buy a Nokia phone again. I'm now ready to do the same to SE products as soon as I figure out what I should get instead.
If you're considering buying a phone, don't buy P1i. I would advise against Nokia phones, too, but that all depends on what you're looking for. If you want a smartphone, keep looking. Take as long as you need, I assume it'll take a LONG time before anyone actually makes a phone that could be called a smartphone and that works. :P
