Samsung Smooth for Verizon Wireless
Samsung Smooth
(Credit: Verizon Wireless)We missed this bit of news last weekend, but Samsung has recently started selling its new Smooth clamshell, available from Verizon Wireless. The Samsung Smooth may be smooth, but it's definitely a low-end phone, with only a VGA camera offering, GPS, Bluetooth, speakerphone, voice command, and not much else. Still, the $29.99 price is hard to beat, and will be just fine for folks who mostly want a phone for making calls.
On Sale Now: $0.00 - $49.73

Also, you have to look at the fact that: not everyone needs to pay $200+ for a phone, pay $80+/mo for a contract, and *whoa - this just in*, a person may, MAY mind you, just use a phone for making calls. Crazy, isn't it?
So hey, you know what? I own a Storm, but that doesn't mean I am going to sit here and spew poo out of my mouth just because I think the only thing that should matter is my "fancy, all-encompassing, supreme ruler of the universe phone," and that anyone who doesn't own one should get one, or that their "simple" phones are somehow less relevant. Wise up and use your brain and realize there is a greater populous than just YOU (generalizations implied) and that some people may care about this.
So true. I am happily chugging along with my 4-year old Motorola Q SmartPhone. Does everything I need: Music, Outlook, and most important easily MAKING AND RECIEVING clear PHONE CALLS.

- Hey I'm a minimalist. I sometimes use an old $5 Nokia candy bar. I have a lap top for browsing and a digital camera for pix. I just bought a Smooth for $15 at Tar-gut. Its just what I want.
