Why don't you try a nokia?

I had the K850 and I had too many firmware issues with it.
That's why I'm using a simple nokia 6120 classic, is too good for my needs.

W960 is good but too expensive IMO. I prefer a P1 modded to Walkman 3 or a nokia N82

Also look at the new Nokia N78, impressively specd mid-range Nseries. 3.2mp camera, new Symbian s60v3.2 os9.3 FP2 with animations and transitions, LOADS of applications and 3D HD Symbian games, fast UI, GPS, Wi-Fi, great 1200mAh batt etc. . .its a bargain, its almost a direct rival to W960, but cheaper.

I think you need to throw up a few requirements, as in what's important to you, and what's less important. Otherwise it's difficult recommending a phone that suits you.

So what's important and less important? Music (mp3 / radio)? Camera? SMS writing? Synchronization? Gaming? Design? Business? Customization options?

Yeah, I would say what QVGA did... You can go for a P1 and mod it to use the W960 walkman player... I have done that and I'm satisfied with it... It is great I must say

There might be not difference in price, but the phones are different. In fact the P1 has the qwerty keyboard which is missing in W960 and the W960 has 8GB built in memory while in the P1 the need for memory is pleased by memory stick M2 slot. So you choose now. If you need huge memory and don't need qwerty keyboard, go for the W960... If you like the qwerty and Walkman at the same time go for P1... Then you will have to install the Walkman 3.
