Reviewer: Marthinus De Coning - Jeffreys Bay, South Africa
Date: 13th Apr 2009

In my experience as a phone sales consultant, I am continually amazed by the amount of people who just want a phone.

They have no idea how to SMS, MMS or email from a phone & have no desire to find out how to either.

This group of people often do not even care if the phone has a colour display or not, they just want a phone.

This phone has recently been launched in South Africa & should be a sure fire winner here.

Priced less than the Nokia 1200 & 1202 models should also help to boost sales.

Dull to look at, dull to use, simple though to use.
