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!

                    amethyst, 07 Jul 2008Is the unlocked-sim free version normally out before or after the branded ones?To the best of my knowledge the SIM free phone should come out slightly before the branded ones, but not by much. It'd prob'ly be worth the wait for the amount of money you'd save buying a branded one...

                            amethyst, 06 Jul 2008ME too!!!! my favourite are clamshells and sliders, but especially clamshells. I am looking ... moreI don't think 8GB is too much. If you add a decent amount of music, so that you have a choice you will soon use up that space. Fingers crossed they bring out a version of this where we can upgrade the memory stick for those of us that want the extra space, as currently it's on board 'shared' memory.
                            That and the lack of flash and zoom on the camera, the only real limited factors on an otherwise very cool phone.

                              I am looking forward to getting this.In spite of the fact 8gb is too much and it will be a bit thick

                                arak, 05 Jul 2008i really wanted such mobile to have a candy bar configurationHey, they most likely will have similar functions on the next successor of w960.
                                Hopefully that successor will have a flash and auto focus camera just like w960....

                                Personally, I've been waiting for a clam-shell-walkman phone for along time :D

                                      kamakari, 05 Jul 2008it is very disappointing as SE doesn't seem to see that this unnecessary grouping of function ... moreThe problem with that is that with Samsung phones you need to go through twice as many menu options as you would on a nokia or SE to get the same result. Ever tried to send a text from a samsung? Type the message then go to options, send, send only/save & send, then either contacts or enter the number. I'll never use another samsung as long as I live...
