It's lighter than most phones. Everything it does talks. It provides privacy for all functions. Its buttons are just the right size and well spaced providing proper tactile feedback. For activities, it has a well designed interface for using the call log, the phone book, the configuration settings, the status menus. It's not too big or too small. It has plenty of sounds to choose from. More's the pity I have not tried it with sms but someone I know uses sms with it. Had this phone been available before I got my nokia 6620 with talks, I'd have acquired it instead for its simplicity, ease of use and because it's obviously built with the intention of bbeing able to be used without any sight at all, yet, once they get over the shock of it not having a screen, folks with vision can use it with relative ease. I just want a phone, I have a web bbrowser and an email client and all those other things that are packed into those tiny spaces. Thanks!
