Mate - go for the 5800. It's worth alot more, is 'hip' which everyone but me is into these days....
I can't comment on the sound quality of the 5800, but I understand it is good.
And yes, tell them to stick it where you know best

If you recently just bought it, then it is likely to be second hand and requires a deep format.
Go into file manager and format the memory there. Although you can use Windows to format the memory, it ain't recommended. OR, you can update the firmware to the latest one (provided you have yet to do so) which will format the memory for you - saves formatting twice.
If you've had the phone for a while, then try searching the phone with Windows and see what is taking up the space. It is probably a file somewhere away from the file manager structure (like a random Windows made thing)
Hope that helps.

The new firmware
I have noticed a SLIGHT improvement in GUI speeds. Not as laggy, but still not a decent improvement (better than nothing I guess).
Camera quality seems to have decreased - have to use a bit more to know fully.
Music - bass is slightly increased. Me being a high-end audiophile, the difference is there, but again, the difference is only slight. Treble / high-ends seem constant / unchanged.
Visual bugs that I saw in the previous firmware are still present on the new one.
Although I would suggest upgrading the firmware to fix possible problems, you HAVE to backup your data. The update will format the memory and you will lose whatever is inside the phone. Too bad the W980 don't have a memory card since I couldn't backup my applications (and I don't use the SE Suite - too much bloatware involved). The phone's firmware also resets EVERYTHING setting-wise. Basically, it is like starting your phone from a factory state - you have to re-set everything to your liking. I should have waited till the update via GUI was available... Updating via PC should need approx. 80MB (depending on what firmware you have now and where you live)
Hope that helps

i noticed the mic is located just below the walkman key...the mic is covered by our face, doesn't that affect our voice clarity and loudness???
w980 users...do you face any in-call quality/clarity problem???
overall, how's the call quality/clarity/loudness...even if the mic isn't blocked by the face???
