          in indonesia?? i think it will be about Rp 4.000.000 or $450 (my guess)

          by the way, i'm surprised that the sound quality can match the apple ipod.

            how about the price?
            in my country (indonesia),
            u can get Z770 for $250.
            i think $350-$400 is OK for this phone.

                the greatest walkman ever they said the audio quality is almost as the iPod means no music phone can beat it great phone but i wonder about the writnig speed the said it's about 2.5 Mb/s but my W960i can do upto 9 Mb/s its about four times more im sure they're the same after all a great music phone with great features but the cam need some improvment and WiFi it will be perfect great design great stereo speakers great screen every thing seems perfect.

                          wow very fast review ...
                          nice fhone i was expect from 2 stereo speakers (from se home) for a little more ...
                          camera should not be more than this one,
                          that a music fhone ! and that enough to take a normal pics
                          also more quality camera and flash meens less battery life and more weight .
                          keep bring as review ... ;]

                            The only reason why they included this camera interface is that its not very comfortable to hold a clamshell phone (or slider for that matter) horizontally to take a picture. If you've used a W910i, you'll know what I mean. However I still would much prefer the horizontal interface as its so much better than the portrait one that the W980 has, that its worth being a bit less comfortable to hold! (This is the same with the W760 too) :)

                            Good review GSMArena, you just need to brush up on your English skills.

                              This is great phone and maybe the best flip phone around now
                              but and it is big but the camera should be at least like the one on w810 and the interface like on w910 this would made it perfect
                              it is still perfect phone but im still disapointment
