k800 as mp3 player?

Hi folks,

i am tempted to go and buy better headphones for my k800i and a 4gb memory card so that i can use it as a mp3/movie player..

i'm just wondering if its worth it - i've read reports that the sound quality isnt great.. but i cant really check as the stock earphones are pretty poor..

i use a sony mp3 player which is 4gb and has an fm tuner.. the nice thing about going with the k800 and memory card option is that i can copy music onto the memory card straight from my ps3 via the card reader/aadapter and i dont need to involve the ps3 at all..

anyone using the k800 as their music player? The radio works well with the rds

cheers,
mick

i have the k800i & from my experience it's better than Nokia
maybe try changing the headphones to get that bit better quality - possibly.
a good music player I've had so far..

Shame Sony insist on NOT putting a 3.5mm jack on their phones. Unlike the Nokia N-Series

The N95 and N81 make superb MP3 players.
