I'd like to add that a 3.5mm headphone jack would be a bonus. But it was never the deciding factor for me.

I would most likely be using bluetooth headphones via a2dp anyways, I don't like being tangled up with cords.

Dan, 30 Jun 2008To those replying to SE Owner, granted the phone can use any headphone using the adaptor its j... moreThank you for your support!

Glad to see I'm not the only one that would prefer SE to include an actual 3.5mm port in their Walkman phones. Many other users and phone reviewers on other websites have addressed similar thoughts!

Not ALL SE phones include the adapter headsets but appears that the Walkman, W, series do.

Sorry for any confusion!

This is a nice phone, but much of the hype is gone since it was shown in February. I've been on preorder since May, but now it's been pushed back to August. Given Sony's release schedule, this phone will most like be out in October-November. Hopefully there is an international model that includes HSDPA for the US.

SE, 10 Jul 2008Um... NOT ALL SE phones have the 2 piece earphone with 3.5mm adaptor just the plain earphon... moreOnce again you have demonstrated your intelligence to the world. I never said anything about ALL SE phones having the adaptor, I said all WALKMAN phones. Might help if, in the future, you actually read what you're about to criticize...

Wasn't the SE W960i hyped as being the ultimate Walkman phone?

Most of us know what a dead duck that phone turned out to be. The W960i Walkman's sound quality was disappointingly average.

How do we know the W980i will be no different when it finally arrives?

Features are very similar to the W890i that was recently released!

Being a "Walkman" phone, SE included a 3.2megapixal camera but no flash or autofocus, again, similar to the W890i.

It is meant to be a media player phone but at least include the flash AND the autofocus especially for the price!

Based on the estimated figures for the cost, it's darn Pricey!

Sheesh!!

bummy, 28 Jun 2008buddy, read Revenant's reply. Walkman series bundled headphones comes in two peices. In whi... moreRe: SE headphones that come included with SE Phones

Not ALL SE phone included the headphones with adapter!

For example, own the P1i and it came with standard earphones with the proprietary plug!
The earphones sound like crap!

Had to buy a simple 3.5mm adaptor to use the darn media player in the P1i with standard headphones!

Sony is one company that still holds out in using their proprietary port for charging and for using headphones instead of using the industry standard mini USB port for charging and 3.5mm port for headphones!

Goodness! Many of you weren't even aware that SE does NOT included the 2 piece earphone set with some models!

You'll notice that many people especially online phone reviewers have critisized this
fact in nearly every review!
