Looking for a new contract phone, ideally want a phone with long standby time and good MP3 playback with a large memory 1GB or more.
Not bothered about camera at all.
With this in mind looking at W950i but some reviews are npt good.
Would anyone reccommend this phone given what I need or point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance.

i have an 850i and imho it's great mp3 player, nice rich sound, great standby and easy to use, plus it's expandable memory wise..

N91-8Gb, IMO best music phone currently available. Not cheap though and can be tricky to source but a superb handset. Everything that was wrong with the older N91 (not really that much) has been resolved an improved.

The W950i (and W960) are both good but why o why do Sony insist on not putting a 3.5mm jack on them

Unless you want to go down the Windows Mobile route (there are some MP3 apps available that put the like of the iPod to serious shame), i would go for an SE. I have the Nokia N95. The MP3 player is rubbish (looks like a Fisher Price reject) and the battery life if a joke.
