As long as my poor Sharp has been turned into a dumb gadget I've been searching for a new & cheap mobile.
Unfortunately, I fall in love with the fashion creature promoted by Elle magazine.
I'm talking about the Alcatel Glamphone RED version. This lovely phone has a good price, but it doesn't have most of the "minimums basics" desired today.
- No Bluetooth.
- Not Triband.
- Only 3h in use.
- No real sound as ring tone.
- Not 3G.

I haven't find too much info. about it around here but it seems to be quite "poor" as gadget.
So, finally, we're paying for a nice basic phone.
However, all the stocks are over & you can't get one without pay 200€. The price on the shops should be 100€ at maximum.
Seems that most of the phone brands are taking into fashion victim designers to help their marketing process & arrive to women's easily.
You can see briefs reviews here as long with some pictures of the Glamphone.

So, I don't know what to do. Get a Glamphone for a expensive price it's not my type of choice. If I should expend 200€ in a mobile, I wish to get Bluetooth & tri-band at least, and find out one for the normal price will be hardly impossible.
