Sony Ericsson W850i or K800i
I am trying to decide between these 2 phones on O2. They're both £20 a month on the online 20 tariff (for 12 months) which gives 50mins and 200 texts.
I currently have on PAYG SIM and top up about every 5 or 6 weeks so I spend about £100 a year. I hardly make phone calls but text a fair amount. 200 should cover it.
Over 12 months the phone will cost £240. If I take the £100 off I'd be spending on top-ups it's effectively £140. Quidco offer £35 on O2 Pay Monthly which makes the actual cost of the phone £105.
I'd like a phone that's good for playing music or listening to the radio as I'm spending 30 mins or so travelling on public transport each morning and evening.
So, basically, which phone should I go for and are there any better deals (or other phone). I don't really want to be doing cashbacks because I'll end up forgetting or the bill will get lost in the post!
Thanks!

ive got the w850i but i prefer the w810i, k800 is a bit big for my liking but overall i think its the best phone out of them my w850i deveoped a fault in about 4 months it was getting played about with alot too though.
after having the w850 id personally go for the w810i
out of the 2 you say id go for the k800 but the downside is that id doesnt come with a memory card whereas the w850 comes with a 1gig memory card
from what i hear the new sony walkman is coming out shortly the w880 hmmm now i want one of themGod made man, man made money, money made man mad0 -

Thanks for your comments.
The K800 does actually come with a 1Gb card.
