5) I think that picture is in quite heavy sunlight, and the two phones use different display technics. Normal touchscreens i.e P990i is almost totally worthless under direct sunlight. therefore I would assume it's one of the few problems on W960i. (Plus, the k850 has a great display
)

@stormbringer, a few answers:
Firstly battery life, don't know about 2 hours music but watching videos for 1.5 hrs battery life drained around 20%, i only charged the phone every 3 days, mostly i used it for wifi purposes and videos also the odd mp3.
Secondly, that picture above shows one phone with the protector still on
maybe thats why its showing bad colours!! i compared mine toi the P1i and W950i, W960i looked much brighter.
Pictures taken with the W960i are in the Esato camera phone section or look at the fron page of this review for the links.
Correct, no camera lens protector on the proto.

Thanks a lot!
I finally got the photos taken by the W960i. I just had to find the filter function...
But they are not so bad, I guess they will be a bit better in the final version.
The battery life sounds very good indeed! But one question remains:
Is it possible to use the W960i horizontally?
I guess not, because I've never seen it or heard about it. But it's odd, because the K850i and W910i have it (at least in the Media Player), and it's automatically by accelerometer too! And this W960i, being the top of the line smartphone, touch-sensitive control, doesn't have it?! Doesn't make sense to me...
But I hope I'm wrong, and it is really possible to use it horizontally. Or maybe the final version will have that option...

Hi Peter,
One question came to my mind when reading Eldar's review of the W960 and its bad ergonomics.
When in Walkman mode, is it possible to activate the keypad lock so that even the 3 Walkman keys stop responding? I actually carry my phone in my pocket most of the time and it makes sense to turn off all buttons otherwise it will play/pause/skip randomly when in the pocket.
If so, does the Walkman key remain active to perform the play/pause action?
To me, one of the big drawbacks of the W960 hardware is the lack of a side play/pause button like on so many SE phones before it, like the W800, W880, etc. When you carry the phone in a pouch, how on earth do you pause your music???
Thanks for your answer, hopefully you had a chance to test this when you still had the phone to play with.
Cheers!!

It says:
"Software-wise, this version of the Walkman player is one of the best we’ve seen, but at the same time, it delivers no breakthrough in terms of sonic experience. In fact, with no dedicated audio chips on offer, Sony Ericsson risks ending up on the skirts of the market."
I've read elsewhere that the sound quality is very good. I wonder what I should believe in. If the sound is not good, I will not buy it.
I'm used to the iRiver sonic quality.
