Bump to add, I wouldn't buy from cellular-blowout - I have been having a nightmare with them - the phone is apparently out of stock, and it took a week after I ordered and two emails from me to find that out - then they told me it will ship the end of next week - I am still trying to cancel my order without success yet after two days.

I'll second that!! I bought (tried) one before my trip in October - it was a nightmare. They did finally refund me my money but it was a fight and alot of e-mails.

No resolution yet - About to start flipping on them!

I found an unlocked new phone through http://www.tigerdirect.com - reasonable price, ordered it last night - just got an email that it has already shipped.

So, after totally ignoring my emails, and my posting complaints and bad reviews on different shopping sites - I get an email that the phone has shipped today! Now I have two new phones coming - Unreal!
