I've been waiting for a while for ATT to finally get this phone. It is a basic VGA camera phone w/video. The keys lock automatically, and the functions are those of any other basic Nokia. The slide feature is cool, Since you can use the camera or the bluetooth while closed. You can also transfer files to your PC and back. With the Nokia software you can sync your PC and the phone, backup your phone, use the phone to connect your PC to the internet, or simply manage your files.

The only thing I don't like is that the memory is VERY limited, and its full of useless games and applications ATT uploaded and I will not use, and I can't delete or get rid of. It has around 8 MB left as useful memory (out of 32 MB Flash). Because of that added software the FM is not in the menu. Also, the main menu takes a full 2 seconds to access.

I don't do much with phones, so this one is enough for me. If you want more get a Nokia 3600, for more than twice the price.

Bottom line: Good basic phone. I recommend it

I purchased this phone for my mother (who is 55+), who does not need advanced features. She asked for a phone that is simple and easy to use. This phone accomodates her needs by providing an easy to read keypad as well as display. She also asked for a camera feature and this phone has one that she seems satisfied with. The color also suits her fine because it looks better than she thought it would from the pictures on Amazon.

If you need more then just a phone to place and receive calls, then this phone is not for you. For a mother who is in her golden years, this phone is great. It has great reception and has never given her trouble.

I ordered the phone from Amazon and received it within a reasonable time (in email notice it stated to arrive 4 months later, which could be a typo).

The phone is good as promised but please be aware that you may not be able to get the $50 airtime credit stated by Amazon. I followed instructions on the package to activate the phone, but did not get any air time credit (though it stated the credit should be given in an hour).

Called Amazon helpline several time, the representatives used same strategy - they will need to transfer to a cell phone specialist, and after verified your information for "security purposes", they went away. Although the phone still connected, no one will respond to you anymore - have to hang up after waiting for 10 minutes.

If you are willing to buy the phone for $99, it is totally fine. But if you expect the price includes a so called " $50 airtime credit with AT&T's GoPhone service", think twice before placing your order.
