My point exactly,the W960 hardware wise is actualy primitive compared to the likes of N95-8gb,and N81 even to Samsung i450, they all poses the music phone "requirements" to rival i-Pod , all have DSP DAC chips, fast CPUs, 3.5mm jack BUILT-IN, and stereo speakers. The ONLY advantage the W960 has is the UI of the music player,bt wen u listen to music do you stare at the phone the whole time? NOPE!
Dani
You are so funny! Lol! You will never get those phones,they are for THE JAPANESE MARKET ONLY! Lol! :-D
NOKIA are now getting OMAP3 CPUs running at Upto 1GHz YES 1GHz!! SE stil geting to 330mhz+
Dani come back to argue with me when you get a phone that can actualy run Quake! LMAO!

      And even more and Reviewers rate N81 is, ive been watching the comments here and the brainwashing is shocking, someone even said the W960 is better than a HTC TyTN-II obviously a simple minded person who knows nothing about WM.
      Dani
      Offcourse NOKIA don't have Walkman THATS EXACTLY WHY Nokia are doing so much better :-D cause they actualy make proper music phones.

          I dont get what this is about.
          Maybe ya understand this: ( its from a site called http://www.3g.co.uk/PR/Jan2008/Sony_Ericsson_W960i_review.htm)

          It seems a good idea in theory, but these shortcut keys sit beneath the numerous other icon based menu options and it all looks like one unholy, overwhelming jumble.
          The problem is exacerbated when you attempt to navigate using the touchscreen. Aside from the fact that the display re-locks itself with alarming regularity, the virtual scroll bar which appears on the side of the display with certain applications is a nightmare.
          Not only is this almost impossible to navigate with your finger (you'll have to use the stylus), when we did finally get the scroller moving, we managed to immediately lose control and press one of the virtual soft key options at the bottom of the display.
          You're far better off employing the physical jog dial that sits on the side of the phone in conjunction with the touchscreen, but we'd still much rather use conventional keypad-based navigation any day.

          Peace and thanks thugz

              To Ron

              Yeah you are right! Great features and it has a 2.8 inch screen BUT it is VGA Resolution with REALITY MAX Technology.
              The N95 8Gb has 240x320 right....?? haha...

              To Tsepz N81

              Forget the T3...
              There are to many people that agree the 960 is the King of Muic phones....

                  I agree,no one here will agree with that, they are under the impression that the W960 is the "King" of music phones because ONE magazine said so when comparing W960 to the cheaper and less specd NOKIA 5700 and Motorola Z6, ive given up,its such an unfair comparison but the SE wins so now they will go with that lol.

                  Once a SE User Always a SE user? Cut the crap, me and a whole bunch of other people realised what type of low life company SE is, the releasd a W900 then a W910 yet the W900 was better in terms of multimedia,and the trend has carried on. So no Once A SE User not always a SE user, user gets wise and buys a phone with same amount of cash but with better specs like HTC or NOKIA.

                        To DONCHENTE,

                        Although those site and others like it process your order, and you get your order, they are actually just dropshiping. They don't actually have any of the products in stock. Sites that do this usually have terrible support. But Thank you anyway for posting your experience. I guess I will have to wait for this phone to be in stock on mobilecityonline.com before I buy it.

                              Well i suppose this phone is a good contendor for the n81.

                              the n81 is a better phone for music i think because it has a 3.5mm jack which means u can use proper headphones.

                              also there are a lot more applications for the n81.

                              also the n81 has a graphics chip and all the n gage games are coming up.

                              personally id choose the n81 but se fans will disagree.

                                To donchente,
                                I live in the Midwest, and while I was browsing for a site to buy this phone I came across those sites you provided. They don't look reliable, one of them has 5 employees the other's BBOnline membership lapsed. Thank you anyway.

                                      Talking about bluetooth, would really LOVE to have the bluetooth accessory that connects to headphones. its a cryin shame it wasnt included in the w960i but can be purchased separately.
