Question Sony Ericsson P1i

Any ideas where I can get this phone "cheap" on a hefty monthly contract? My current supplier Vodaphone Business have decided against offering this phone at all to anyone due to so many problems with P990 .

Video shows "processing" then text fields of :

First name : JACK
Last name : REECES
Mobile : +1 566 22 18 01

So I was guessing it OCR scanned it, I could be wrong

take photo of business card then use the 'scanner app and it will take the info from the card and create a contact while keeping the photo of the card for access later should you wish. P990i does it.

It's in the phones firmware so I'd say not. There may be a java app that could be used though if you can find one.
