Good spot. Yes, it is too thick, 19mm not 17mm.

This is the critical measurement of pocket friendliness; I'm afraid I'll keep my K550 for this reason, and probably get a F700 when that's released.

Honestly, apart from the £$%ing buttons the K550 is nice, slim, decent cam, ultra speedy OS, excellent Java engine and most importantly pocketable.

Oh well. Signing off this thread.

K850i
clearing up the queries first:
1. QVGA 30fps video recording, confirmed
2. the camera lens protector is actually BEHIND the piece of glass (a surface you can wipe with your cloth), so you won't be wiping dust directly onto the lens

keypad: the alphanumeric keys work fine, it's easier to type than the N73 or 6300. feels similar to the one on T650. the d-pad is a bit clumsy, but once you get used to the position, it's actually faster than using the joy stick, especially when texting.
the 3 soft keys are NOT backlighted, they are a bit tough to press on (similar to W850's d-pad, if you find that ok, then the k850 is ok as well.
new media screen: here's to compete with Nokia really, expect a PSP/PS3-esque browsing experience, no problem at all
music player: it's not walkman, so no megabass, minus the full screen visualizations, it's really really close to the w960, so if you don't need megabass, the k850 works just as well as a music device (yes, flight mode, of course)
camera: frame refresh rate, focus speed are all comparable to the k800i, i.e. great. a full 5MP pic takes 2-3 seconds to save, which is pretty alright for a phone. we didnt test the pic quality since it is a proto, it is unfair to do that. you can check other sites for that.
accelrometer, yes, this is especially useful for viewing pictures, if you tilt the phone, the menu (PSP esque cross menu) will also tilt. very handy

Same with me, think it needs something extra like this make it stand out a bit. Nice phone with a few extra on the K800, but only a few - not much improvement to show for 18 mths extra development time.
If the rumours are true, by the time it comes out it's main competitor could be the N82. I was really hoping SE would be releasing something to compete with this phone as I’m sure they would have done a great job if they had decided to. As it is they’ve only done a mediocre job, not to bad, just not to good.
