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.

I say no to this little Samsung GSM bricklet.
