I have this phone for almost exactly a year ago and am very happy with it. It has been many falls (the highest from a 3rd floor!) And even a visit to the washing machine survived. Of course, it has suffered some external blemish it, but it works correctly in all functional areas that I use daily and as needed. I am glad that it is not broke, despite my clumsiness and can recommend it to anyone who like me need a cell phone that can survive even adventure with the washing machine at least once next fall :). The design is now not besonderst exciting, but who puts not too much importance is served here well. The mobile phone is not necessarily suited to business travelers, but it fulfills the function of technical requirements of a student completely, is also minded students friendly pricewise and keeps damn much. All in all it is a mobile phone with all the nice basic functions (calls, SMS, MMS, GPS, camera, games, etc.) for the 'normal' mobile phone users, an acceptable battery life (3-4days with good training ;-)) and a robust I stop all-out housing.
