In India, we've already have Nokia phones for as low as 18 Euro, inclusive of taxes.

It's shocking. Some of the people here are too provincial living in rich countries... You definitely don't understand the point of this kind of phones.

There is a world outside of Yonkers, Barnaby...

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,
