LOL, I've just convinced an Italian colleague at our school to select a
phone for her upgrade.
We had a look through T-Mobile's online pay-monthly phone inventory. She really likes the W810i and what it has to offer, but also digs the brown-bronze K800i, even with its bigger dimensions. She's off to the local Carphone Warehouse store now to compare the phones before phoning up T-Mobile.
Another one for the
cause.

lol!
I suppose it comes down to what she gonna use it for...Music, I would be tempted by the w810i. The K800i would blow it out of the water if it comes down to everything else. By the way, do you get some kind of headset with it, the K800i?
Well, I must say, nothing easily beats my w900i with 2GB Memory Stick Pro Duo...I find that I easily run out of space with at least 1.2 GB held out for shows and all that. Would not be able to do with less...Now if only the jolly 4GB cards get cheaper...What more could you want? a SE that plays music, takes good pictures, works like a dream...I can't wait when in 2 years I have to upgrade, to see whats available...

She didn't seem too bothered with the differences in the 2 phones' music features...like many lasses (I'm generalising here), the aesthetics, colour etc. are usually higher up the pecking order. She did want something with a fairly good camera though, so narrowing down the selections to the auto-focus equipped phones was easy.
EDIT: Forgot to mention, the K800i comes with the standard basic
headset.

The headset included makes it a kickass phone...and the fact that you can charge and use the headset...i like...
If it wasn't for my great phone, that would have been my baby. Only pity is the Memory Stick Micro...too expensive and not enough space.

Well, I've just checked out the DD Eastern Cape staff list and there's no sign of a Hunter, maybe she got married.
@deluded
Sockets is just a different communication method to HTTP. It is less restrictive and should be faster than HTTP, your phone's gotta be a MIDP2 enabled though.
@786KBR
To make it freeze, try playing a video with MXIT running then surfing the net, that never fails to freeze a K750.
I have a slight problem, I'd like to get myself a Vodacom contract but my contract with Dimension Data is only for a year and I was hoping to go to Japan at the end of 07. Is there any way to get a 12 month contract? or should i just stick to PrePaid?
Today's my first day of work, and speaking of work, I think I should be getting to bed or else I wont wake up.
Enjoy your day further everyone.

Good luck on your first day of work, Kitsune. Something my dad told me aeons ago when i was starting to work was, "Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday." Take it easy bro, and remember to never allow your job to dominate your life; as much as you'd like to conquer the world, take time to smell the roses...
Right, so what's up with Siosal, guys?
Deluded, how'd the chemistry exam go, boet? Hope it was better than you expected.
Have a stunning Friday, folks.

To be honest I have the W810 and W900 headsets but still feel the K750 and K800s all much louder and have much more bass!
Thanks Kits ill try that, so currently I have a P990 and a E61 both very stable and fast phones, Im little surprised by that for some reason.
That screen on the E61 ROCKS!!! Its bloody massive!!

@ Kitsune, how about virgin? There any way you can then maybe pay off the phone over a year or something? Else maybe you can get someone who will take over the contract for you when you are done.
@ siosal, good to have you back...so what was up?
