I picked up this baby (Sony Ericsson T290i) for a measly €25 when I subscribed to a T-Mobile Prepaid plan last week. Deduct from that the €5 of free initial airtime and the €10 of additional time I get for filling out a straightforward customer survey. And at what do we arrive? Well, we arrive at a disposable cell phone for €10. Nice!
Not to mention the fact that as a part of T-Mobile's generous 24/7 Prepaid plan promotion (or inventory-clearing event), I was also given 247 free (assuming my Dutch is still as good as it used to be) outgoing text messages. So based on a €0.08 cost per text message, I got a free cell phone. That, my friends, is the definition of "inexpensive".
I've already received a call (which freaked the crap out of me when it rang; thanks, Steve!) and a couple of texts (thanks, Carolyn!) since purchasing my phone too.
And the phone isn't bad either. I mean, it's got all the basic features and exemplifies the technology of 2005 to a tee. Plus, I was tired of the "flip-phone" (it's soooo 2006). So what's not to like?
I'm sure I'll find something...
