I like the phone as well, I would have bought one myself except the size is just too big. For this reason only I prefer the k-jam (there is an o2 equiv as well). It is a sweet phone though good luck with whatever you decide.

I currently have the P910i...

I too am looking to change my phone. I first thought of getting the Nokia N80 but I just didn't like the phone's looks. After reading some reviews I started looking into the N93 but that phone is just too damn big. It's like a frickin brick.

So it's going to be either the P990 or the K800i unless another phone catches my attention...

yeah it's a problem... And wearing a holder on my belt is not a solution to me because I just don't like the idea... :P

heh, the P990 looks sweet and I am just used to this phone since I've owned both the P900 and P910. But there's something about the K800i that makes me want to check it out. I think I'll just go to some shop and compare both phones before making a decision.

actually for a really good flip style smart phone, it is a bit old now but i've always liked the MPX300, I use to have a MPX200 and it was great in its day, just had a problem with freezing which seems to happen a fair bit on Windows phones, especially the older ones.

If its for you, any of the new Nokia's or Sony's are pretty good. Im upset with my 6230 because it hangs quite often...

If you plan on buying one for your wife/Gf...get the Motorola V3 Razr in PINK...she'll love it :wink:

^^ yeah i'm getting it for myself...my chic wants the new samsung 530 something which is also pink in color...

my previous phone was the p910i...i got a good deal on it so i sold it...then i bought the w900i...this is a very good phone...got 500mb internal memory and memory card compatibility upto 2gb...the only reason why i wanna change it coz it freezes...and when the phone has its moodswings nothing will work...the phone will keep switching off...it'll refuse to connect my bluetooth headset...or for me the phone will be switched on but when someone calls me they get the switched off thing...

the p990i was supposed to release in march thats what the sony ericsson website said...but they decided to postpone the release and tweak a few things innit and make it more hifi than anyother phones...they haven't said when the launch is gonna be...

the only difference between the k790 and the k800 is that the k800 is a 3g phone...otherwise everything is pretty much the same...same looks...same specs...3.2mp cam...everything...
