Well, I've done the deed and bought a W810i! I'll post here (or maybe start a new thread) on if it was worth it or not

I've just bought an 2gb memory stick pro duo sandisk for 59 dollars in my visit to the US, it works perfectly in my w800, so not only the w810 has up to 2gb memory cards...

Well, I got the W810i today! First thoughts?
I feel it's a slightly better looking phone, and the screen does seem that bit brighter and sharper when compared to that of the W00i. It's also listed the tracks I have on the memory stick by artist - which the W800i didn't do for some reason, the tracks didn't show up in it's music player!
Juries out on the D-Pad, the joystick was easier to use, but my prove to be more durable..... but I've never had a problem with the joystick on my W800i!
Not tried the radio yet but think it doesn't have RDS, which is a bit of a shame.
The external speaker seems louder, which was one big complaint I had of the W800i, it was far too quiet.
The lack of a camera cover also could get annoying, as the lens is more or less right where you'd put your finger whilst holding the phone/texting, I keep getting fingermarks on it, will just have to hold it a bit differently I guess.

Just tried mine and it has RDS!
It's also quite nice having both a Walkman button and the 'Activity' button of the K750i, the W810i seems like a good combination of both the W800 and K750.

HI! get a w810. it has edge! and looks way cooler than w800. personally, i would get a w810 coz its newer and all the technical issues with w800 were resolved with w810. and its colour is less annoying. i mean, who thought of clashing orange and ivory? @ least the w810 is more descreet.

so far still a big fan of the 810, material quality to me doesn't feel quite as good, but that's more of an objective thing imho.
Also of course you get the over-the-air firmware updates on the 810 too!
and an rss feed reader, found that today also, should be useful!
will try to set it up for Esato.
