5800 looks smart:razz:...comon guys it doesnt look good...its too thick

& its not below 17k

well,i dont no abt 5800..the specs is fine ang gr8 bt wat i dont like is the touch screen..in ordinary phne i could just send the right text msgs widout taking out the phne i.e. inside ma pocket..am rely confused abt it..i prefer more of a SE walkman and cn't decide which to buy..nokia products coms wit gr8 specs which leads to firmware problm and slow..

W880i??

In SE almost all walkman phones are either flip or slide. you better start looking in Nokia or prepare for using flip/slide.

Gawd man. You are buying an SE dude. You can easily change the acoustics using a free program named a2uploader and in fact load in the best acoustics from the W995 or beyond. Get the C510 if you want something cheap or the C901 as it releases in a few days and that should do it. If you want something stylish get the C902.

guys am rely confused..i like the looks of w902 as it is slim,has 5mp camera and as a walkman phne as i like to play music..the shake control and sense me..etc..but at the same prize there are more better phne in Nokia products which includes Wifi,infrared..etc..but do not like the looks of them..can't make up my mind..

be clear on what u want...if u want mega bass...style...fancy things like sense me and shake control...if u dont need a OS...then go for W902..

Else u can have a smart looking Symbian OS phone N79.

Look if u really concern abt music...and wont use it as a computer:mrgreen:..then u dont need a symbian OS...which is slow compared to SE latest UI...SE latest UI is soo stylish.
