Sony Ericsson W580i v Samsung u600

I need a new mobile phone as my current one is on its last legs. I can't decide what to get but spotted the Sony Ericsson W5801 and the Samsung U600 silver.

Are they any good? I'm really not sure what to go for/what to look for. I want a decent camera on it and ideally want a walkman on it.

Any advice?

    Well, I have to say definitely not the U600, I had it and well didn't last very long, awful touch buttons, screen damages very easily and there are supposedly a lot of bugs on it as well.
    As for the SE I don't know much about them so can't really advise you on that, but if you're looking for a good camera and a walkman then I'd recommend the Samsung G600 - has a 5megapixel camera (it's very good imo) and also imho the mp3 player playback on it is excellent.
    Although the G600 doesn't have a normal socket for standard headphones, the phone gets supplied with a converter so you can use your standard headphones with the handset.

    Hope thats of some help to you. :rolleyes:
