Back then data costed so much that it was almost a bad thing to have 3G, you could blow through an entire 50MB data package in 30 seconds by accidentally opening the web app. It had wifi to make up for the slow data connection and at least the 2G act...

It was a Curve device, and it was released in '09. It was never the top dog back then, and definitely not now.
