At the end of it all... You need to decide weather you want pay for features or looks. There a lot of people out there dont care much for features and want looks.
So its not about what is good or not... Its about what suits your needs more.
Cheers
ENJOY

The main problem that found with the W900i was the size. It was quite big.
The W900i is nearly three times thicker and is over twice the weight of the W880i.

No disagreement there, Boba! Only pointing out, that were it not metal finish, it would be cheaper - all phones with metal casing are overpriced......
And as someone who looks for function before form, I'd take W900 over W880, in fact I have done!

I have had both the W900i and W880i...
If I had to choose again... it would be mainly on looks and the UI update and the Player... I would go with the W880i.
I loved the W900i... but its bit too big.
Cheers
ENJOY

Well if design really matters to you then go with W880 otherwise go with W900 ...
Id prefer W880 cuz i like slim/light design ... plus W880 looks cool
but it really is overpriced !

w880 has a very nice design and almost as many features as w900 (exept from the camera, bigger screen and radio)
If you want a good musicplayer, small size and beautiful design, go for the w880. if you want a good cam and musicplayer, go for the w900

Wow thanks for all the responses guys, reminds me why I love Esato!
I'm kinda glad people see it the same way I do really, though i did wonder if it was only me who still was in love with my old W900i! I have an iPod that I carry with me everywhere (Podcasts rule my roost, and they're not easy to get on a phone without some form of labour) so music isn't crucial to me. I forgot about A2DP to be fair, but the fact I forgot, shows that it doesn't mean alot to me right now!
As for the push port, does anyone know what I can do, about it? I'd like to get it fixed, or worst case, maybe find a another W900i? I literally cannot plug anything in it, it just pops straight back out again. I have to charge my battery, in my W880i, which is very annoying indeed. If anyone knows about the problem, or where I might go to get it fixed (without paying alot of £!), that'd be greatly appreciated.
Right then... Off to reset up my W900i as my primary phone.

read that the design goal of the w880 was actually to fit all the function of the w900 into a size of the top swivel of the w900.
if you look at the features, its exactly the same except no fm radio and no auto focus. probably that the best they could do.
