No, you're not.

Build Quality ? How is it --> Good, d-pay and keypad is comfortable.
Is It's UI Better Than Z550i Or Much The Same --> The same I guess, except for video call.
Was It Released After or Before The Z550i --> Before.
Would You Buy It ? --> If I could afford it, YES.

it's a nice budget phone to use

i wanted a t68 when i had my k750. though i was thinking to keep them both

the k610 is, imo, better than the z550. 3g, 2mp, more internal memory and so on are things positive on the k610.

But you can modify the phone to get better camera and acoustic drivers.
And about which comes first, I'm really sure that K610 (announced February 2006) comes before Z550 (announced May or June 2006).

IMHO the K610 is an excellent buy, very stable s/w and good battery life, plus it has a cool retro-ericsson style blinking red/green LED on the top that i feel ALL sonyericssons should have

but unlike W810, K610 has no AF. Still, if camera is not your main priority, K610 is a beautiful and reliable handset well worth considering. It uses m2 memory, so be ready to buy M2 memory if you don't already have it.

the K610 is a nice phone with a nice interface. Hubby used to have one and I agree the camera isn't much good, but the music player is good and the battery life is ok.

If you plan to use the music player, I don't think the K610 comes with any headphones. Also I don't think there is a radio?

correct, no radio option
comes with default PHF
if music is main use, get a w810 ... no need to doubt
