New phone time, advice please!

Got my PAC number from Vodafone, and it's valid 'til the 9th of June, but I can't decide which phone to get! I'd ideally like a K790/K800, but don't think they're going to be released in time, so have narrowed my choices down to the Orange SPV C600, Nokia N80 (strange, as I don't like Nokia or slide phones!), and the Sony Ericsson W810i.
Currently got a SE K750i and it's been brilliant, so quite like the idea of getting the W810i, but would also like to try out Windows Mobile on the SPV, is there any software on that platform that makes the phone a 'must have'? Then the N80's the first Nokia phone I've liked for a couple of years now, and Wi-Fi could come in handy too, looks like a great phone. Cheers.

Hi if you are used to the k750 then you are going to feel right at home with the w810 they are very similar.
I have got a t-mobile SDA and its great for the internet. However in my view I would never want to use my SDA as my main phone the handset is just to big. If it was me I would go for the n80 or the orange phone and also get your k750 unlocked. That way you get the best of both worlds. A smart phone to use when you want and a smaller handset to use when you go to the pub etc.

Thanks for the advice, but the K750 will be going on Ebay to fund a 2gig memory card for whichever phone I eventually get, so the 2 phone option is out of the question, although size isn't really an issue for me anyway, function over form! Do you use any software on the SDA that you find essential, trying to find a good reason to get the C600? Cheers.
