And you're stuck with a 1GB card? Bad luck... Maybe you should pay for the game.

I'm not a huge fan of Final Fantasy. Actually no that's not true, I've never even played a FF game so I dunno whether I'd like it or not!

well I can tell you, oli speaks very highly of his c902. Personally, I think its a really great phone, but the two things that make me get the c905 over c902 are: c902's screen is small, But in saying that, the k770 screen was small and its alot better than my k610's screen. And number two is no wifi. other than that it is basically a non slide c905 (minus a few megapixels and wifi)

Yea g is right, I do speak highly of it, but I must admit that I speak highly of it for its camera mostly. But you say you don't particularly need it for the camera...

The screen is 2", but it isn't a bother when you're using it. I went from the 2.4" W910i screen to this, remember, and I don't have any troubles with it at all. I don't notice the size difference while using it. The C902 is the most solidly built phone I have ever seen or used, seriously. The build quality is amazing. The size is great too.

However, after all that is said, I'm going to have to recommend you the W980 out of the two you mentioned, for a couple of reasons:

1. The W980's sound. I personally can't stand bad sound from a music player. While my W910i and C902 are ok, they just aren't good enough for me. That is why I have a proper Sony Walkman. But I figure the W980 must be very improved because it has won a couple of awards for its sound quality, plus it has the new Clear Bass or whatever it's called.

2. The C902 comes with awful headphones. It has those really bad standard ones that come with cheaper phones and low-end Walkmans. They are the ones that have no 3.5mm adapter. Crap. The W980 however comes with some of the best headphones that Sony Ericsson make. Quite a good deal right there.

Now, style. I can't fault either of these phones from a design perspective. They both are two of the best looking phones in SE's range currently. If you've seen them in real life, you'll know it.

However, one thing that I don't think I could stand is the fact that the W980 is a clamshell phone. I'm not a fan of having any form factor other than bar phones now. My W910i's slider started to scratch the paint off after a while, and clamshell phones can get annoying to have to open all the time. Especially if you're in a situation where you shouldn't even have your phone, but you just wanna check something quickly, for example a movie theatre. The external screen can't always show you what you want, so you'd need to completely get the phone out of your pocket or wherever.

Anyways, that's my rant. Good luck with choosing a new phone mate. I'd definitely recommend the W980 though, if you can stand having a clamshell! I know some people love 'em.

I dont mind modding.

Some people prefer to keep the phone "As they (manufacturer) intended it"... others see it for what it is, as in that they split their phones into ranges and separate all the good bits. Modding allows you to create a true all-rounder. A C902 with W980 acoustics. What else is left? Bar 8mp and all that crap. It will be a super slim, 5mp Walkman giant. Plus I use an 8gb M2 so it will be perfect?!

I hate these companies making you choose either this or this for marketing purposes. Why not just make a perfect phone with everything and it will sell itself? I have to create my own frankenstein Cyber-walkman until they do. Grrr!

Oh yea, has anyone been watching the exchange rates? Not that many would be interested but the NZ dollar -> Pound wen from 2.64 to 2.9 overnight! This is not good. Prices in NZ will go up again soon because of it... But the wages wont. Petrol will the first indicator I guess...?
