Can honestly say the W960i is a beauty and will sell like hotcakes.

W950 certainly didnt, so what makes u think W960 will? A 3.2MP camera?

as a current w950 user, i really loved the phone at first, then the flaws in the phone started bugging me. i love the walkman feature use it every day,but as a touch screen phone i feel it doesnt work as well as it should. i am disapointed that the w960 again doesn't have a better/bigger touch screen, personally i am going to leave this one alone.
i think that a touch screen is the way forward but se just havent come up with the goods. yet!!.
the i phone is definatly on the right track for me, but again too many features missing (especially blue tooth stereo) .
i am going to wait until next year to see whats in the offering.

yes, its ashame the screen is not biger(but it looks nicer than p1i),and two simple arrow keys(m600,p1i) could help greatly .only time will tell if its natural to use.it looks brilliant no-less.

add to that:

-Head turner walkman touch & media manager
-more stylish compared to W950
-doubled storage 8Gb
-Compact form factor, tell me any media smartphone that was more smaller than that but with all it's stuff and TS
-Powerful Multitasking - don't think i have to elaborate this further
-and yeah! the 3.2Mp camera, it's built under the reputation of SE's great cameras

Even though the screen dimensions of P1 and W960 the same when i had them in my hand the W960 screen looked a bit bigger,i think its because the W960 is Black and the screen is not Flushd and so it appears bigger. I dont like how the i-Phone doesnt have proper keys. I liked the fact that i didnt even use the W960 stylus i just used my finger like on an i-Phone and then when i want to text i use the keys, its a great combo.
Im HOPING the W960 doesn't sell too much because i hate having a phone that every other person has! Lol!

That's what we refer to as being "sellfish"

Personally, I truly do not like the scroll wheel... 3-way or 5-way. I prefer Ericsson's joystick or d-pad (R520, R380)

I really do think that Sony's contribution of the scroll wheel and the "back" and "OK" keys are not very ergonomic, and look out of place on a keypad. Yes they work... yes you can get used to them... and yes, they do have a purpose... but Ericsson's YES/NO made more sense than a u-turn looking arrow and an "OK" key.

That aside, I think the W960 is way more user friendly than the iPhone. It's the phone I'm waiting for, and the one that's keeping me from buying the P1i actually... I prefer the sleeker keypad of the W960i... the only reason I'd buy a P1i is if the W960 comes in at an abnormally high price.

hehehe but really... having a phone not many can have is pretty sweet. imagine having a phone like the nokia 3310 was frustrating, and boring. it doesn't feel special anymore. if everyone like to have a phone everybody has, then nobody would bother spending extra bucks for a Vertu.
