you mite aswel just get the w800i, if its gonna be on contract then it makes more sense to get the w800i over the k750i.
I totally agree with Ess here. Though the W800i is a BIT more expensive than the K750i . . .

what makes the W800i MP3 player better then? I have a D750i and I'm curious to know what the differences are?

The media player on the K750i need playlists to play anything. On the W800i on the other hand you can play for example a particular album or the songs from a specific artist without the need for a playlist. The sound quality is the same though, as the hardware under the covers are the same.
I flashed my K750i with W800i R1AA008 firmware. I like the better media player but miss the activity key. On the W800i this button is the WALKMAN button. I find this rather pointless as the function seems to be more or less identical to the music button on the left side of the phone.

Well just in case you do decide to flash your K750i with W800i firmware (to convert it) you can use this version of the Total MultiServer service (www.totalserver.net).
Here's a link to instructions I posted on a similar post:
http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=111785&start=20
A credit costs £8 (paid through PayPal or Credit/Debit card) and you can use your existing USB DCU-60 cable to debrand (no operator start-up screens and menu icons/shortcuts) and to do the firmware update. Essentially all your doing with this service is flashing your K750i with the W800i firmware.
Good luck.

Actually underneath the housing they both have the same hardware, so basically they are the same phone with different firmware. The differences you see in W800 (better MP3 player etc.) are because of the firmware, and I think that is why DP-77 wants to update his K750; to have the features of W800 with the looks of K750.
And about having more bundled memory with the W800; well.... if you compare the prices, normally a W800 costs more than the combined value of a K750 and a separate 512MB card, so doesn’t make much sense in buying a W800 if you prefer the K750 look and don’t mind meddling with firmware.
That is exactly what I was talking about,

well you didn't mention the headphones
the headphones plus the memory stick duo is about right for the cost
i got the headphones seperately and they aren't cheap

i put in a 2 GB Sony Memory Stick PRO Duo card, and loaded about 1.5 GB (300 songs) of songs. however, my playlist only goes up to 30 songs. Is there a way i can play ALL the songs? or am i only allowed to play 30?
would the w800 flash help?
