 Awesome Phone, Awesome Deal September 27, 2007
Ixstala (Pittsburgh, PA)

This phone is amazing. If you need to renew a contract or sign a new one this deal can't be beat! I got the phone two days after placing the order on Amazon, not the 2-4 weeks as advertised.
I won't repeat the admirable qualities of the phone here, other reviews do a good job, but there are three things to note. First the walkman logo on the front of the phone is AT&T not the sony W, the W is on the back however. Second, no memory card is included in this hardware package. Third, the branding on the phone disables the flash based menus and locks out other standard features such as mp3 ringtones over 600k, although there are ways around this you can end up breaking your phone if you're not careful. Also the battery cover is really hard to get off if you don't have finger nails, the best method is to use your index nails at the top sides of the cover and pull towards the bottom of the phone. Otherwise, perfect.
 Very Fragile October 7, 2007

I was really excited about getting this phone. But sad to say that i was really disappointed. Not with the options or any of the features. But with the durability. I got this phone and within a week the screen cracked from just being in my pocket. Amazon had great customer service and sent me another one within 2 days. And the same thing happened. I am not hard or rough on my phones. But this phone isn't built very well.
 Mystery dialing October 23, 2007

I bought this then returned it. Just try this test yourself: Slide the cover down to lock the phone, put the phone in a belt mounted holster, press the front of the holster three or four times. Now remove the phone and you will see that quite often it has unlocked and either accessed the internet, dialed someone from your address book, or is trying to send a text message. I liked the phone, but couldn't live with this.
a terrible error October 27, 2007

Buying this phone is a terrible error. My old Sony Ericsson W800 works great, so I chose this phone for an upgrade. But this phone has problem with the memory card slot. Sometimes, it shows there's no memory card in. After you plug out and plug in, it's ok. But after you do some operations, it's gone again. I got another one for replacement, the problem is still there. I visited ATT local store, the problem is still there...what a headache...I suspect this model has design defect...
The best headset for a music/phone device ever September 27, 2007

I haven't received the phone yet-totally excited-but this is a blurb about SE Walkman phones in general. I've had the W600i and I LOVE the headset that SE has with their walkman phones.
I've read in many postings that the asymmetrical headset is a con and people can't figure out why the difference in length - this drives me mad and I had to vent.
The reason for one end of the headset being longer is simple: the longer end is meant to go behind the neck so that the headset hangs off your neck when you take the earbuds off. I personally find this genius. I don't have to worry about dragging the headset when the earbuds are off. And the earbuds! Its perfect - it actually fits in your ear - not like the slippery buggers that ipods have.
