If you only use the phone for calling and texting, just get the
el cheapo no-frills phones.... no point paying more for
Bluetooth/3G/MP3 etc if you're not going to use them, no?
Sony Ericsson is selling quite a few such phones. You can get a
very decent one for around $120-$150.
thing is i'm not paying for it...i get a mobile allowance every 2
years or so. i can buy any mobile within that allowance or top up
to get a more expensive one.
