if only the phone's imaging sensor is CCD. it'll be worth an upgrade camera wise to the K810. a 5mp camera with a regular CMOS sensor delivers no more quality compared to a 3mp otherwise it's a CCD. CCD sensor takes more light than CMOS does and it has better color reproduction and wider dynamic range. comparing a CMOS and CCD of the same size or even CCD is a little smaller, CCD clearly wins by a wide margin, no wonder why SE S700 become the best imaging phone for European market even it's sensor is smaller then the best CMOS 1.3mp camera nokia 6630

@razec
But CCD costs more money and drains more power than CMOS sensors. And let me remind you that Canon still uses CMOS sensors on their high end dSLRs.

But in 'general' terms you are right. CMOS isn't normally as good as CCD, but the difference is not as great as it once was. For camera phones, CMOS will do fine for the average consumer.

I spoke to a young gentleman at the Sony Ericsson shop this Sunday afternoon just gone and he seemed to be pretty sure of a November release. I'm still hoping for October personally.

The difference is still easy to see when watching the photos at full 100 percent scale. The amount of noise in photos from CMOS cameras is still obvious. My cheap i-mobile 902 (with a 5MP CCD sensor by Sony) beats the expensive Nokia N95 easily when it just comes to photo quality. The same goes for the K850 samples published so far. (Just forget that the rest of the phone is very basic, to say the least... I still haven't figured out how to sync contacts.)
