Probably there will be a new serie, like the X series or Y series and so.

well considering the natural progression of phones I think its fair to say there will eventually be a W series phone with the same 3.2mp camera as the K800. Theres no way that from now onwards the W series phones will never have more than a 2mp camera.
Oh I too believe this, though I also believe that a 3.2mp W series phone will not come out until either the K800 has past its time or after a while when a new Cyber-Shot phone comes out with an even better camera. SE won't do what they did with the K750/W800 again now that they are separating the two series', music and imaging, mainly due to the fact that if a Walkman phone comes out just after the K800 with the same camera, there will be no point in the K series and also people will perhaps start to not get the K series phones due to the thought that a W series phone will come out soon after with the same camera and a better music player as well.
Ultimately SE would loose money if they did the K750/W800 move again, it was alright then but now it would be disasterous with the two series separating and all, ecspecially for the K series.

Well said Xugaa. But I'd have to say that the money loss would't be as bad as you say it might be. The k750 and W800 both did very well. Why would it change?

Because as I said, with SE separating the two series the Cyber-Shot series wouldn't sell so well if a Walkman phone came out with the SAME camera and obviously with a better music player.
K = Imaging
W = Music
IF...
K = Imaging
W = Music
+ same K imaging
WHAT WOULD BE THE POINT OF...
K = Imaging
WHEN YOU CAN HAVE...
W = Music
+ same K imaging
=
K = Crash and burn, no more Cyber-Shot phones.

SE makes the W series very flashy and trendy with the targeted audience of less than 20 years. So even if they made a full fledge W series with 3.2MP camera, the K series would still sell. After all, the K750 was a hit for a reason.

Yeah I'm sure it would, but if that were to happen there would be no advantage to getting what you thought would be THE Sony Ericsson imaging handsets, they would be no different or better specs wise. I think that if this did happen (which it won't) it would only be fair that the K series would then get Walkman media players with all their functions and features...
Also giving the W series the same imaging capabilities plus of course their Walkman media players, it would make the K series seem inferior and not as good everytime to the W series.

All I am after is a phone like the K800i, but I must be allowed to use my own headphones!
Is there a way to do that?
