    I rather have the S500i. I’m not saying that I don’t like the K850, but I intent to get a slider phone. Altho I don’t know yet, I’ve to seen/feel this in person to make my choice.

    By the way, does anyone know when this will be release to Canada? I really need a new phone!! Waiting on S500i or whatever comes first, K850.

    I have reviewed the specs of K850 but what’s the difference in comparison with K850i.

    actually i am much interested in a big MP digital camera like K850 or K850i but unfortunately it’s equiped only with a common stereo speaker and not 3 D sound effect stereo speakers like that of Nokia N Series, but still not completed for its lower than 5 MP digital camera.

    Is there a possibility that sonyericsson mobile phones will be launching a 5 MP digital camera with Music Edition (equiped with a 3 D sound effect stereo speaker)?

    k850i is rlly fat and is basically the same as s500i except the camera. And sliders r waaay better. =)

    Candy bar phones still have their place, sliders are fine but they do need extra depth to facilitate the sliding keypad.
    The K-Series has always been candybar format and I doubt that will change.
