Lowkey, for like 30 bucks I'd copt one, root it, and use it as my booster phone. Amazon needs to offer that boy up for the lows. I'm sure not even 3rd world countries want it at this point

Hmmm they could give them away with ever free over $100 purchase use it as a tax write off... There are people out there that dont have cell phones give it to them, better yet. metro pcs could use them... just turn off all that amazon shyt and make it a basic droid with unlocked gsm phone and you might get some money off that... $50 a pop full purchase...

You right, they shoulda flooded the markets on some LG / Huwai shyt... maybe went with some companies like Net10 or H20....


coulda locked down an entire demographic of folks that can't get Samsungs / Apples

oh well

China wouldnt be good now that I think about it because I dont think they use GSM phones.

They use alot of gsm phones over there.... what you talking about... its just that the competition is so steep over there not a good look for amazon to make their money back...

So the rest of the world doesn't use Global System for Mobile? The world wide standard.
I swear you dudes are always one some shyt

You do there are many countries that only use CDMA right? And I was under the impression China used CDMA/ something other than standard GSM. Either way I can care less about what they use, but GSM is NOT used 100% globally.

I have a pretty close source that said they were working on a second one, but they must have been discouraged after how badly this first one did.

Amazon needs to stop and focus on what made the website great...focus on a great store. Not all this extra bullshyt that people clearly do not want.
