I've found three stereo handsfree remote controls that (should) work with the W810. If you have experience with any or all of these, please post it to this thread
1) Sony Ericsson HPM-82
http://www.sonyericsson.com/spg.jsp?cc=gb&lc=en&ver=4000&template=pp4_1_1&zone=pp&lm=pp4_1&pid=10471
http://www.mobilewhack.com/reviews/sony_ericsson_hpm-82_earphones.html
Pros
- OEM quality
- OEM compatibility
- appearance/finish matches phone
Cons
- two-part design; could be too heavy/floppy for gym use
- poor clip design and location - identical to the HPM-70, which causes the mic to hang awkwardly and the wiring to bend 180°
- can't find a US seller that has these in stock (yet?)
2) iDNA MRH-200

Pros
- one-piece unit
- clip located on unit, not wire
- new model has appearance/finish that matches phone
Cons
- not OEM - may have compatibility/usability problems
- costs as much as HPM-82
- clip looks very cheap (just a non-moving chunk of bent plastic)
3) Touch SRC-100

http://mobile.brando.com.hk/MusicianSRC100.php
Pros
- one-piece unit
- clip located on unit, not wire
Cons
- not OEM - may have compatibility/usability problems
- appearance/finish does not match phone (no black+orange)
- apparently discontinued or sold out?
- clip looks very cheap (just a non-moving chunk of bent plastic)
I apologize if this is something of a repost. I found precious little via the Search function, unfortunately

You might find MRH-200 a lot cheaper from eBay.

I may have to get that one, as the
unit is suddenly no longer compatible with my phone http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=130162

the HPM-82 does work perfectly well with the W810

I wonder why
pulled it off the list of compatible phones, then?

strange things happen on the SE web sites but practical experience will always given the correct results
