Err, if you're looking for a phone with longevity, a Samsung is not your best bet, despite what they advertise. If you don't want to get a Motorola Nextel phone, then go to Nokia. I've owned many phones and I am pretty careful with them, too, and the only phone that's ever sustained physical damage was a Samsung I owned (p777)--it was dropped on a wooden floor and the screen cracked. My Nokia n80 has been good as have the Nokia 3200 which I had forever (it was my second phone), the latter worked so well, I gifted it to my not-so-gentle uncle and haven't had a complaint about it yet.
“An engineer explained to us that hundreds of ear impressions were gathered in the name of research, and while each one obviously boasted its own unique shape and size, one single characteristic remained uniform across the board: the entrance into the ear canal is not a perfect circle, it's an oval.”

Is this allready available in the US?
I woud love a phone like this. I was going to go in for a Motorolla Nextel (the big one), but this is much smaller.
Anything is better than my current phone (that has a busted everything i might add).
I think it's definitly worth the money, it's a no frills phone that can take a beating, what more do you want?

I say no to this little Samsung GSM bricklet.
