Saw both the red and black  W995's at the local Orange network store. Dang, the red one sure stands out from the rest; it's stunning IMHO.
@ Kryptik:
Ya, it's certainly an attention-grabber.

While on the subject of touchscreens, the 5800's new update sounds interesting:
From GSMArena today:
'The Nokia 5800 XpressMusic is getting a firmware update, which will introduce some new, quite welcome features - an enhanced homescreen, kinetic scrolling in some menus as well as improved camera performance and response time.
Update: The homescreen will be modified to resemble the one on Nokia 5530 XpressMusic rather than that of the N97 as we reported initially. We are sorry for the misunderstanding - we got our wires a little crossed on this one.
The kinetic scrolling update is only partial at this stage - it will be applicable in the homescreen, the Contacts list and the web browser. The update is surely more than welcome but we cannot help but feel that it will make the UI on the 5800 even more inconsistent.
Imagine this - in some lists in the Nokia 5800, you use kinetic scrolling, in others - dragging, which requires a two taps to activate an item, and in icon-based menus use just one tap. Worse still - sweeping your finger upward in the Contacts bar will make the list scroll down, while in another menu that still uses the old dragging logic - it will scroll up.
Another benefit of the upcoming firmware update would be the improved response time and camera performance. When this update will be available for the 5800 XpressMusic remains to be seen but it'll should be shortly after the launch of its younger sibling - Nokia 5530 XpressMusic. According to the source the latter will come with all the new features straight out of the box.'

If only Satio had a 3.5mm jack and was in my price range 
So far my options look like they will be: N86 with pay-in, N85 free, N79 free, Palm PRE with pay-in, a BB Bold with pay-in, 8900 Curve free,and probably W995 free, thats my prediction of my upgrade options mid-next year, if im lucky the N86 will be free and il get that or otherwise settle for a N85, and if im REALY lucky the Samsung Innov8-16gb will still be available and il get that.
Ye NOKIA realy trying hard to keep that 5800 upto date with newer S60v5 phones, its going to have dozens of updates just like the N95.

@ Gucci:
LOL, ya boet, youd need a lot more than any standard Golf to keep up with a GSX-R1000 K8. 
The engine on a K8 is restricted to 300km/h, redlines at a wild 13750 RPM, has a dry weight of 172 kgs and pushes out well over 160 BHP. How's that for a power-to-weight ratio?
Adrenalin rush, methinks, LOL.
