I've been waiting for its launch for a long time. I'm not an elderly person, but I do want a phone that just _that_, and a few other stuff. All I want is my 'navigation' to be flawless, as fast as my fingers can tap; quick short cuts to stuff this type of phone has (sms, calender, reminder, calculator and conversions). So I can do any of those within split seconds; and good battery life (this one offers great); plus sleek looks (Nokia is focusing on up to date design for basic sets as well) - cool.

This is just a phone for that. Many thanks to Nokia.

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...
