I am thinking of buying this phone to use on the XT network, I have however been very burnt before buying a phone off trademe, that would then not connext to the internet etc... Does anyone know about these phones and do you think its good value at $400. I mainly use my phone for texting, and a bit of internet. I have also been on onebill - but under the xt pricing think I will be better off going to prepaid.

Any advice greatly appreciated on this phone - and if you don't like it what would you recommend? I don't want to spend too much money Cool

looking and here and here it looks good to go. you will need to get the Telecom API settings if they are not already in the phone. They are on this forum
