Whatever the counterculture trend is now, Le Car or Cadillac, I’ve decided that bigger is better. I don’t mind the Zune’s heft, and I’m wishing I’d bought the 17-inch Macbook instead of the 15.
So, I’m very happy to find this classic moto styled brick phone with a GSM SIM slot inside. And the china-import even has MP3 ringtone support, a speakerphone, SMS, a color screen, and other modern niceties. It is 3/4 of a pound, and nearly 8 by 2 by 3 inches in size, though. At $170, it’s a steal, when you think about it per pound. One wish — I’d like a shoulder strap, and a chiropractor on speed dial number 1.
