Ugliest Phone Ever?

Perhaps not, but very close. I was looking at this thing yesterday. I don't even understand who this is truly even being marketed to. And what's the deal with putting "SLIDE TO OPEN" right on the phone? C'mon...

Not to mention worthless. The only non EVDO phones anymore are super basic, what's the point of making a higher end phone (because of the QWERTY) without EVDO and charging $70 after rebate?!?! 😡

This is our future Juke (as in, the clearance phone on BAG3 that we can only sell to kids).

At least they didn't make it in blue. Oh, wait...

I don't know who the hell they have working in marketing, but need his damned job. It is simple. High end phones for early adoptors and just plain geeks. One must always have a few PDA/smartphone devices with no camera option though for government and businesses afraid that their employess will commit espionage with camera phones. Then you have lower end phones without V-cast for those grumblers who claim they don't want all the bells and whistles and then the basic brick or minimal flip for grandma and grandpa. What the hell were they thinking here?? A messaging phone without Vcast? Please!

Look at the phone. Obviously they weren't thinking!

This has been available on InPulse since 8-8 and only in select Wal Mart stores. I picked one up last week. It's not the greatest phone, but it's not the worst, either. They are selling these for $99 on InPulse.

You would be surprised how many people nearly break my Samsung Juke display dummy because their philosophy is "If it doesn't flip open when you try to flip it open, then force it open!"

Hahahaha...maybe that's why the "SLIDE TO OPEN" thing was necessary. Are they marketing these to people who wear helmets while going about their daily routines? XD
