"Objectively, it's a nice phone to have"

What I like:

Build quality, calculator look, leather cover with built in battery, small size, wow factor

What I don't like:

Difficult to hear phone ringing, hard to keep shiny area between keys clean

Review:

I bought it because it looked like a calculator. Plain and simple. I figured it will have the wow factor for a long long time to come. I heard that this phone is no longer in production, as such, this phone will be a great classic. I have a PDA phone that I use to download my mails and needed a small phone for general use and for weekends where I will leave my PDA behind. I have so many people shocked to find out it's a phone. The leather/extended battery is ingenious. The power plug and the plastic cover to protect the jack on the phone seems fragile though. The phone is hard to keep clean, expecially around the keys. Talking with the leather cover is also funny 'cos the flap touches your mouth. The software is fine, like all software, once used to it, it's fine. Not slow. It's sufficient for my purposes. Overall, the metal body makes the phone feel great.
