Girlfriends got the light yellow one, I read all about the keypads too, but problem was fixed soon after, they released a revised model that fixed the problem..
Good all round phone

lol yep, does what a phone shoulld do, makes a call, sends a text and lets you take pics n mp3's without any hassle.. Camera doesnt have an LED light, an think they've taken the macro mode off, but still all round really good.
Can set mp3's as your text tones, yep, relatively small internal memory, memory card solves that easy enough

Haha, yea, M2 memory cards, can pick up a gig for under £15 on the'bay..
Not a bad deal there, although all these 'free ps3s' n things your kinda paying for still,
example..
£35 a month x 12 = £420 with the 'free' console etc.
or..
they'l have the same phone without the 'freebie' with an offer such as half price line rental for a year so you're sort of paying the different to get the ps3..
£17.50 x 12 = £210 with no console..

Ah, that is actually pretty good deal then..
Hopefully you like the phone then, one last thing you may want to get is this if you're going to use it for MP3's, as the headphones you get are almost impossible to keep in your ears if you move your head.
Can then plug any standard headphone jack into the phone then..
Edit: I may ask Sony Ericsson if I can become a salesman
