K850i or wait for the W960i?

As per topic guys, long long ovgerdue an upgrade but its fallen wrong with availability so i have been waiting patiently since july. Currently got a clapped out N80 which has had more than its fair share of problems, re flashes etc.

Thinking of going away from nokia (friend is on his 6th N95)

Previously looked at the P1i but not 100% suree so im looking at the K850i or W960i. Don't need loads of apps, just the basics really, good OS, camera, music player. not even in need of browsing facilities as get plenty of time at home to do this, just recieve emails would be good. W960i looks good but still now word on release?

Any suggestions people?

Re: K850i or wait for the W960i?

I was also considering the K850i but have just spotted the W960i and am begining to change my mind about it. The W960i looks pretty nice, has a 3.2mp camera and 8gb of memory along with a touch screen. Looks really nice too. Not due for release until december though and knowing Orange it probably won't be available with them until February.

Has anyone seen or experienced this phone?

I have used one and its pretty much the same as the P1i. The W960 just has better music player integration.

If you don't need a smartphone with wi-fi then I suggest looking at the K850i. As for overall ease of use and stability the K850i is better.
