Business users may have a tough time deciding between M600 & W950.
with almost same specs,leaving the memory factor aside i see a clear winner in M600 coz it's obviously going to be cheaper than w950

As its a touchscreen product, will it have the same stylus as the P Series?

i'm not sure if there is, I mean, the M600 has one, but where its located on the M on the W950 are the volume controls... 
I'm really disappointed that it doesn't have a camera, otherwise this'd have been my next phone for sure...!

I dont think anyone thought it was a fake as it was officially announced last night and the press release posted in the first post of this thread. |

Almost same size as ipod, and if the ui is well done then it might be as handy - sure a touchscreen must offer some possibilities to let you scroll as fast as with the clickwheel.
And it plays AAC of different flavours...
Why, o why, can't apple team up with SE instead of Motorola? SE sure knows how to do this music phone integration.
And I wonder how much longer SE is going to keep up this pace in releasing new phones. |

And now they just released a Bluetooth stereo headset!
Mighty - this is something a lot of people have been waiting for.
Apple is not going to like that. A lot of iPod users would like that too I'm sure.
SE *sure* knows how to do these walkman products. |

I suppose SE has done some market research to find out how many people would prefer with or without camera. Conclusion must have been that in the whole set of features (including form & size) camera was not necessary or even unwanted for the target group? |

its to make people buy the P990, if the W950 had a cam, then noone would buy the P990!

i'm not actually that bothered about it not having a camera, because the thing with camera phones is that you buy a really good one and its not long before a phone with an even better camera is coming out and you decide you want that one, its tricky trying to keep up with the technology. where as if you don't have a camera, you have something great like this thats pretty unique, theres not much you could upgrade or be bothered about. perhaps the only thing is the memory, but well 4gb is definatley enough for me, i mean on my k750 512mb is enough for me lol
