I have this phone for nearly 2 years and haven`t faced any problems, it only restarts when you want to install a game which is an invalid file or theme that is damaged.
So people buy this phone, cause its a good phone!
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!

complaints about phone restarting are nonsense, this was the case in early 2008 before any firmware update was out. since its release, there were many updates and the last one is from middle of 2008, version R1FA035 (36 and 37 are identical, only difference is network-specific branding).
so don't listen to people who for some reason complain about ancient firmware trouble in 2010 and never bothered to use the sony update service software.
w890 has too low volume in its standard stupid configuration from sony. also its video and photo shooting quality and interface are terrible. both have third party fixes that make the phone great like it should have been by default. the acoustics and camera drivers can easily and safely be updated. here are the best versions as of today:
http://www.4shared.com/file/iRtC8qzj/w890_acoustics_and_cam_driver.html
overall this phone has great and exceptional build quality, unlike even much more expensive and recent 10mm and below phones. it has a comfortable and quick interface, bluetooth takes very little battery time especially when set to powersave mode, and most importantly (it is a phone after all) it has great sound quality especially if you update the acoustics driver. for a phone this thin, it is a great achievement, and way before others, in 2007.
the screen is very nice but like almost all others it is pretty much impossible to view in direct sunlight (and i do mean sunlight, so you englishmen or similar can save me your comments, and so can you "why do you want to use a phone while standing in sunlight you pathetic human" people).
the sony computer driver and software integration is perfect, even in windows 7 64-bit. very well laid out and always reliable. this is a great advantage over some other companies' software (cough nokia).
one sadly missing feature is phone number based blocking of calls and messages.
in short i made a very, very extensive research before coming to the conclusion that this phone, with 2 little modifications, is by far the best super slim phone one can buy today if he/she wants high quality *phone* features. and i'm not even talking about the walkman audio player features. oh and there's even wav support.

I have had the phone for about a year. To save battery life switch 3G off and bring your screen brightness down to 50% then it lasts a long time. The speaker on the phone is kinda lame and the camera has no zoom. I really want to get the w995!
