I got mine yesterday from 3 in Sweden. It comes with 8 Gb memoery stick!

Overall very very nice phone for music. The camera is OK too, but not top notch of course.

Someone asked, and yes it has Active Sync but I haven't tried it.

    hi all, just got this hp few days ago. Its light and the bronze is a cool and nice color. Since SE have always been using black and silver for their handset. well, one thing that is :( is the volume. Even i have on it till the maximum, the incoming call is very soft, so does the alert for sms... but overall, its the same as the rest of the walkman hp besides its a 3mege pix...

        The Camera is not bad as those guys said, It's a little bit worse than K810, but really beyond any expectations.
        The Screen is as crystally clear as K850!
        really solid construction with the new battery cover mechanism.
        The Screen get high score under the direct sunligh! I have tested it many times today!
        really superb media player!!!
        But I did not test its browser/sense me/ and ...

          Well this phone came out since 3 days if I´m not wrong but it seems that people aren´t buying this phone because I can´t see buyer comments in this forum. Is the price a factor??? because I think nobody can justify the high price tag, but maybe the phone in fact is very good. Maybe if some owners give some reviews my critizism about this phone price could change. If not I´ll be waiting for w760 (gps, bigger screen, stereo speakers).

            Why is everybody complaining about the camera ? It's a Walkman phone first and foremost, and weighs only 78 grams. If you want a 'decent' camera buy a brick like the samsung G800

              ur welcome dude,
              the camera is beyond expectations, just a little bit worse than K810!
              lodspeaker is tangibly higher than w880.
              screen is crystally clear like K850 and I tested it under the direct sunlight today; the texts can be easily read!!!
              the new mechanism have given a solid construction to this phone.
              you have a nice and rapid (mouse) pointer in browser.
              REALLYYYYY superb media player!!!!!!!
              and and and and ........

              If any question, I'm at ur service.

                Nice to see some SE employees here ;)

                Thanks to them the price dropping everyday since availability!

                No wonder, anybody who is independent feels this phone is over priced and far less attractive than its pictures.

                Just a few reminder:
                - no flash
                - no autofocus
                - very limited memory
                - small screen
                - poor picture quality
                - poor video quality

                And lack of all these for ....
                SE released it for $$$$$$$ and now looking for the max. price people still willing to pay - SE has no shame!

                GREED, GREED, GREED!!!!

                          W890 First Look:

                          I think the pictures are better than the real phone. The black version I saw at the store is not that eye-catching. It's thin but it won't draw attention.

                                    How is the W890's keypad compared to the W880, besides that the keys are bigger in this one? Is the sound better in the W890 than the W880 (which is tinny)? All in all is the W890 better than the W880? Thanks.

                                      This phone does look much better in the picture then the real thing!(I had only seen/try the silver colour one)

                                        W890 feel flimsy as compared to W880. The back cover is made of metal as compared to soft plastic of the W880, so it's more slippery(I almost dropped the W890 when I was trying it out in the shop!).

                                        Obviously, function & interface(same as W910) are a big improvement over the W880.

                                        Comparing this to the W910 walkman phone; I still prefer my W910 cause the styling is better & the screen is bigger & easier to see. The only improverment over the W910 is the camera & can also download map; which is insignificant to me.
