I dunno which model, but my bro just showed me today the new phoen he got thru a work plan (save huge $$$, incredible), and it was a Sony Ericsson. Very very small, but pretty cool looking. the camera on it was sick!!!!!!!!!! simply inredible for a cell phone cam.
i beleive it had 1 gig of mem for mp3s. |
That could be the one. It has a 2 megapixel camera, plus expandable memory for the MP3 player.

I have the W600i, and its very good. No complaints (except for the non expandable memory). ESP since I got an avi to 3gp converter Ive been watching movies on the subway, at work...lol.
The only thing I hate is SonyEricsson's universal idiot jack... Can't do two 'jack-operated' actions at the same time. |
Drew, can send me that converter program please?
Re: the w600i... I realized I took lousy night pictures, because I just found out it has a 'night mode' and now I get much better pix than before. I should have RTFM! |

get the W810i from rogers for 2 bills then debrand it and get rid of all the rogers garbage thats on it. then it becomes one of the best phones out there for a decent price.
the k800 is awesome but is wayyy to expensive. if you're really interested in it, you can get it for about $550 at pac mall.
anyway, hope it helped! |

speaking of 'debranding' one of the things I hate the most is ing ads on the mainscreen (wallpaper) is there a universal program for Sony or Samsung phones that can remove the stupid logos and stuff? |

You should be able to change the wallpaper using phone options.
Oh, and w810. Very solid phone. |

in order to get rid of all that you have to flash your phone with the latest firmware. you can't use the SEUS (sony ericsson update service) updates cause they don't unlock the rogers settings.
you have to purchase a log account through davinici servers or wotanservers and debrand it that way. once you do you get rid of the "mall" thing in the main menu and all the rogers startup screen . as well as unlocking the true theme's of the phone, which are ALOT more eye catching.
mind you, by debranding and flashing your phone, you void the rogers warrenty. but it's worth it.
if you have any other questions i'd be happy to help out! |

i've realized after NOT buying a $400 cell phone, it was a good choice. All I do is just talk on it now and then, and other than text messaging, really dont use the other lol. Maybe I would for like 2 weeks, then thats it haha. Pretty thin phone, doesn't cost that much, i'm good lol
Like what if you lose your phone, or something happens that wrecks it? At least I can replace mine for $165 lol. Who really buys a cell because it can take pics, and expects to take actual good pics with it? no one, they just buy a digital camera. I can see you want it to take pics, because maybe theres some huge crash you can get a picture of, or drunken pictures, but still, its not worth the money.
I know I know, the cell phone is a toy, and its cool as some of the stuff it can do, and yeah yeah, if I was rich I would still buy the most expensive cell I could find, but knowing me, wreck it somehow lol. |

Other then that no complaints. |

I have the W810i, it's a great phone. However, if you plan on using it listen to MP3's, there is audible hiss and static noise, especially at lower volumes and break downs of tracks. Other Sony Ericsson Walkman phones do suffer from this same problem... there are third party fixes available, but not yet for the W810i. Hopefully soon!
Check out the Motorola A1200. It looks like an amazing phone. But it will cost you $600-700. |

$600-700 now that much I'd never pay for a phone :p
how's the customization on the W810i? in restrictions as to what you can do with the pics/vid/mp3s you upload? (like set pics for photo call id, set full mp3 for ringtones, etc...)
customization is key in any phone for me personally
