I wouldn't pay a dime for it. Large LCD screen is too fragile (cells will die), battery life is likely to be drastically cut (although lcd is relatively low power, the video processing capabilities of the display are likely to use up a lot of juice) and to be quite frank, watching a movie on a screen a little larger than an index card is a waste of time (and money). the buttons also seem extruded from the case by a large degree, which isn't that big of a deal with a keypad lock but they tend to break easier...
Always be wary of "feature packed" devices.. they tend to be poorly thought out. My money goes on an extreme lack of durability for this... |
