This has got to be the best cell phone I have ever bought in my live time, and in the lifetime of cell phones. I personally believe in this phone, and i seriously believe that you need to get this phone. It is so nice. It is basic, but it does do everything I need it to do.

Pros

Big screen
Big full keyboard
Loud speaker
Verry durrable
Does not feel cheap
Fells great to my fingers

Cons

I don't think there is anything wrong with this phone, and you need to go out right now and get you one! :)

I realy, REALLY love this phone and i think you should go get one. The price went down on the phone at Radioshack from $100.00 to $80.00. They still have the insurance plan for $20.00. I walked out of the door with my phone all ready up and going for $98.00 after tax and the insurance plan (and my $10.00 off coupon I printed out). so you might walk out of the door paying no more than $109.00. The phone was exactly $86.59 after tax and the insurance after tax was like $22.50. The insurance plan that Radioshack provides covers everything except for lost or stolen. You can literally walk in the store with your phone beaten into pieces, and they will replace it for free. I have already had mine replaced twice because I sat on it and broke the screen and then for the second time I dropped it in water and then sat on it 19 days later. Again, they replaced it for FREE!!! I LOVE IT! GO GET ONE!

Pros

The camera takes good pictures.
The full QWERTY keyboard is easy to use.
The battery lasts for TWO days on the lowest settings.
Lots of memory...after all the factory stuff is deleted...
After all the factory stuff is deleted, it allows up to 246 pictures and 250 text messages.

Cons

None so far. I think its the best so far! :)
