i just got it today, and very much liked its display n sound clarity. but the drawback is it doesn't have FM stereo, but only mono :(, and that the earphones need to be plugged for the FM to operate :(. this is totally ridiculous. The earphones have superior bass reproduction for which i give a plus point. More things as I explore further..

    I just looked at the manual & there is a calender there. can someone tell me if I can set a few reminders to ring at the specific timings within the day? also is there a birthday reminder?

              Its a (black) beauty. Ya, I got a black model in India for 2850 INR (roughly 60 USDs).
              I was one of those imate pocket pc phone users, which had all the bells, whistles and drums. No doubt that fone is great, but it was a pain either in the butt or on the balls (based on which pocket i carried) lol .. Too heavy and huge.
              So i got this one - it is so small and light, it is smaller and lighter than the battery of my previous phone :) I just dont feel it in my pocket!
              It does the job well. A phone is to be used to talk, sms and at max hook up to the radio. Got all that i needed. FM is quite clear and loud.
              Battery - pretty good .. on full charge i cud go for 3 days with light phone usage and medium radio usage.
              Menu (UI) was a tad outdated - this could have been better. And I would have liked a standard USB charging slot than the one it comes with.
              But again - with these looks and for the price - what more do you want ???

                            If u say for da style, its good. But da price in BD is too high but da phone doesn't support JAVA and MMS. Da memory is also too less n display is only CSTN. U'll get a nice phone of Motorola, BenQ- siemens or even NOKIA with that price.

                              for a basic phone, this is expensive coz its a slim phone, something most basic phones are not, and coz its a samsung, which are almost always expensive. :}

                                In Russia I bought it for 100$ too. Thats not too much for such a compact phone.

                                    This has got to be the most stylish phone I have ever seen. It is very slim, it has a good display, radio and good battery life. The sound quality is very good as well. It has an unbeatable price.
                                    It is a very good basic phone with a few extra gizmos. Truly recommend it

                                        Got one 2 weeks ago. The screen is visible under sunshine, and there is one list for all calls. Battery is ok, in stndby + 15min talk it lasted about a week after the first full charge. But its too narrow.
