Sony Ericsson - W580i Cell Phone —
The Sony Ericsson W580i is the third Sony cell phone I've owned. All three had great features though the first had bad software. The second was lost and I got this one as a replacement and I couldn't be happier. I don't spend a ton of time using the internet on my phone so I've found the walkman features and phone capability very practical. For any significant number of songs or pictures you have to add a flash memory card, but that also makes it expandable.
I commute a lot by mass transit and the ability to put songs and podcasts on my phone has been a great benefit. In addition, with a cradle, I can play the phone through my speakers at work freeing my computer up from dealing with sound when I'm put it under heavy usage.
The camera is quite good. If I forget to take my regular camera, I get nearly as good of pictures from my phone as I do with our digital camera. It's easy to use and even the video isn't too bad.
On top of that it has excellent reception and very clear sound.
