          i heard selling price from indo distri to shop is around 25usd, so the phone still below 30usd. Wow this are one of the reason samsung, lg and others failing in indonesia. make and sell what are most indonesia people wants, not make phone according korean or jps taste.
          the worse is korean taste on phone. i think they are damn sure are wannabe,

                Almon, 04 Nov 2009I agree. These phones could be used in public instead of yo... more"I agree. These phones could be used in public instead of your expensive touchscreen smartphone. This would also be used in situations like robbery. For example, if the thief forces you to give your phone as they typically do, you can give this instead."

                Your chances of getting stabbed would go through the roof mate! LOL

                        A 3.5mm headjack on a budget Nokia, that's EVEN better than the High end SE Satio which lacks the port.
