I am a cam whore as well as a music whore!
BOTH I say! I wish SE would have a new line of phones that combine the best of both worlds (like the k750i and w800i did). They can have a W series without autofocus and a k series without walkman and then they should have a new line that has has both a great walkman software and autofocus as well. I don't mind paying a little extra for this. That way, :se; can satisfy all the whores!
The music whore, the cam whore and the dual whore (like me).
Ain't soo hard to do eh? I think its rather simple.
Well, to answer the original post, I prefer both! As an engineering uinversity student i find that the camera in the K750i is
very useful when doing projects and stuff (the macro mode is really useful) and the mp3 player helps pass the time. Sound ain't bad either, combined with a philips headphone. Drives the bass nicely.
If
decides to use this current crap strategy, I'm gonna have to look elsewhere for my next phone. Too bad. They were doing fine, now they decided to pull this crap on us.

The K800/K610 mediaplayer still is much better as those of other phone manufacturers. I had a W810 and I don't miss anything in the K610. Ok, it's different, the UI design is not as fancy, but appart from that - it does well.

Horses for courses, but for me, neither camera nor mp3 player. Which may explain why @kimi and I both chose K610i. Just a good solid compact no-nonsense phone, which happens to have a camera and media player too so I might as well use those on occasion.
I'm stuck loyal to SE because of the user interface and the OS.

@chili
absolutely, the camera is good enough for occasional shots, the media player is good enough to listen to music while on the train.
For me the connectivity features are much more important. NetFront browser, RSS, Push-Email, streaming radio, streming TV/Video - all based on UMTS.
But I see the point of other users: there is no CyberShot/Walkman all-in-one product, but there are non-CyberShot/non-Walkman products (K610, Z610 etc.)... Ok - for me - I would consider the K800 still a almost all-in-one...

Yeah the media player on the K610 is sufficient for my needs as well.
I'd use my media player more than my camera, even if it was the K800. It's more practical for me, because I end up not using my phone's camera anyway. But the media is more useful. Some of the 'I wish I had a
good camera' moments are there, but they're not too common anyway.

I'd say probably the camera. I don't listen to mp3s often, my iPod's gathering dust!
I agree with vrl, it's nice to have a decent quality camera with you all the time, it may not be as good as a dedicated digicam, but nowadays they're getting pretty good!

just to make it more even, music player is MUCH more important to me. i use it all the time.
i tell myself that it's good to have a cam just in case, but i probably end up taking a handful of shots once every 6 months or so. that's why the W950 is the perfect phone for me.
