Hutch provides it as well. I recently saw a great deal for the Pearl - if you're a member of "Metro Cash and Carry" then you can get the Hutch/Pearl for 15K all inclusive including a year's data contract etc. It's 2 letters per key, and no touch screen. There's a PDF reader for the pearl, though it does not come bundled in the base Airtel firmware.

Bluetooth 2.0 instead of the older 1.2 spec.. the last bit would be a cover for the camera lens.. apart from these... its a lovely phone! _________________ If it aint Boeing.. I aint going.

Worst if anything goes wrong there are no authorised stores in BOM. They're all self proclaimed authorised. Go for i-Mate or HP in my opinion. _________________ http://www.myspace.com/avsatsworld A Walt Disney and 20th Century Fox Audio Producer!!!

Runs on windows mobile 5, with a 2MP cam, word, excel, ppt installed. Bluetooth & wi-fi ready. Connecting & using the wi-fi is a piece of cake. Good battery life. For someone like me who practically eats & sleeps while on the phone, just need to charge it once in 1 1/2 - 2 days. The only drawback : no GPS. would've been nice to have it in it. Anyway, can't expect too much from its price tag of Rs. 25k. Managed to buy it for Rs. 20k. aM _________________ M y - J e t P h o t o s Back to top D-ABTH Member Joined: 22 Dec 2006 Posts: 837 Location: VABB :: BOM Posted: Tue May 15, 2007 7:55 pm    Post subject: the n95... now thats a crazy phone _________________ If it aint Boeing..
