ive had my k750i for 3 weeks now, love it to bits and all... BUT since ive heard bout the w800i i want that one instead!!
i prefere the colours (im a young female so the oranage appels to me, wheres the black k750i is very proffisional look for me lol)
thing is i dunno whever to buy the w800i and sell the k750... OR upgrade it ie housing and software. thing is its gonna cost me £25 for the 512mb memory, £25 for housing, another £20 for software upgrade....
soooo do i just buy the w800 or upgrade my k750?? what would u do?

If you like the K750 you should keep it until the W800 gets cheaper. I'm sure it will in about 2 months. And in the meantime you have the K750 to keep you company

If I were in the same position as you, Id go for the W800 rather than doing the total conversion of your K750 to w800. Besides the things you mentioned you should also get the W800 headphones which is another cost. And there are all kinds of things that can go bad in the total conversion, and you would still not have a genuine w800 but a converted K750 possibly with problems using SEUS to update in the future because of the softwareflash.

But if you DID like a mixture of the housing colours or the K750 look then go for the softwarw change. I did and its just that extra bit it was missing with flight mode and all. I personally dont like the W80 themes though so i still use the K750 "Tiles" theme. My W800 housing is on its way to me, but im not going for the full convert (its just a W800 then, nothing personal) im going for a mixture. I'll post pics when im done.

I like the K750 camera lens cover, but i also want the earphones of the W800
If the W800 gets a bit cheaper in a couple of months I'll just flog my K750 on ebay and go for that instead

yep I've also thought about that. I might go for this option, if i can get the earphones for a cheap price. Having a large memory card doesnt really bother me too much ....

k750 design is much better than w800 especialy the back side..... but the w800 bested the k750 in such a way that it is walkmanphone with 512 mb free inthe package

I'd stick with my k750 for it's looks. both k750 & w800 have same hardware. may be SE may release a f/w for k750 having same options that w800 have (better media player).
if you love orange color, install w800 default theme. that's what i'm using now.

i would go for the W800, it would save you alot of work. and if something should happen to it. the repair center would see that its a real one and not a K750.
i find the back of the K750 better, but the back of the W800 is great aswell.
buttons are better on the W800.
