We like:

Good music player; easy to use and respectable camera; acceptable amount of internal memory; almost all functions accessible without opening the handset

We don't like:

Over-sized, especially when open; single mono speaker on hardware; feature-limited FM radio on external headphone cable rather than built in to the handset

You might also need:

Memory Stick Duo or PRO Duo cards

This large phone certainly has room for stereo speakers
