u can do it on your own, not sure if se service manage this for u. anyway, if u have no experiences at flshing fones, let it be done by an expert and rather pay for it, to avoid any bad experiences.

you mite aswel just get the w800i, if its gonna be on contract then it makes more sense to get the w800i over the k750i.

If you flash your k750i to w800i remember that you will void your warranty.

kamal825, I think i'll stick with the K750i firmware as i'm not 100% sure of the re flash to w800i is it just a case of choseing the w800i in the se update service instead of the k750???
I'm quite happy though but thanks for the info...
Cheers

i said it makes more sense to get the w800 becoz it has a better mp3 player and way more memory so it isnt the same as the k750 its slightly diffrent and slightly better

Actually underneath the housing they both have the same hardware, so basically they are the same phone with different firmware. The differences you see in W800 (better MP3 player etc.) are because of the firmware, and I think that is why DP-77 wants to update his K750; to have the features of W800 with the looks of K750.
And about having more bundled memory with the W800; well.... if you compare the prices, normally a W800 costs more than the combined value of a K750 and a separate 512MB card, so doesn’t make much sense in buying a W800 if you prefer the K750 look and don’t mind meddling with firmware.
