This thread seems to have separated into three separate sub-threads:

The fastport itself - is it good or bad?
One of the good things are that it will break befoer the phone itself does if exposed to external force, and on of the bad things is that it sometimes does not stay in place when it should, and that the connectivitiy may be poor if the contacts aren't cleaned periodically.
The new placement of the fastport on the phone at the side instead of at the bottom. It seems that most people agrees that the placement at the side is not so good.
The design of the fastport plug itself.
The plug is unnecessary big. Why does some accessories have a design of its fastport plug that makes it impossible to connect it in the port replica on the back of the CST-75 charger's fastport plug?

i've been using my w800 for 2 yrs n so far i changed 2 wired hf... da port itself is ok only problem is da way thy design the part where the wire goes into the male connector, it somehow break easily internally n 2 of my headset broke the same way... if this hpm-70 for my w960 break on me the same way as b4 im going to get the stereo bt hf, although it only got 6hrs of batt life but still better than buying so many hpm-70

everytime i put my fone in my pocket the wire always bent upward...y cant thy design the headset male connector like the USB cable...stright up...

I have experienced exactly the same thing. The earphone suddenly just went silent, and it seems like the leads have been broken at the point where the cable enters the connector body. If the cable had ben connected to the back of the connector instead of at the side of it, this would probably not have occured. SonyEricsson seems to have solved this problem by placing the fastport connector on the side of the phone instead.

I'm just stunned at the problems some of you guys are having with HPM-70. I haven't had a single problem in almost 2 years. It's still working brilliantly. Actually the other day I dropped it on the ground and accidently stepped on one of the ear buds. I bent it a little, but was able to straighten it up a bit and it still sounds just as good as it did.

Here it is, if I straighten it anymore it might break completely, so since it sounds fine and still fits snug in my ear I'll justleave it as is:
