I do believe this is the most basic phone we’ve ever written about on MobileCrunch. Really. The press release is all of five sentences, and the specs sheet rattles off “VGA Camera”, “Messaging”, “Stereo Bluetooth”, and then realizes its own futilility and gives up.
 Have you ever noticed that Samsung can sell the same phone for 8 years? Sure, they strip things down and repackage it all in a fresh body - but really, it’s the same phone. Hell, even the name “Glint” is recycled; Samsung used it for the Sprint m610 flipphone way back in 2006.
With a 2 megapixel camera and a QVGA display, the Glint from 2006 actually had better specs than the Glint from 2009. However, Glint 1 cost $180 bucks - Alltel doesnt even both mentioning a price, here. I’m pretty sure they’ll give you a box of them for free if you just smile at them. |

Maybe you’re trying to erase any lingering virtual sweet nothings of an ancient romance, or maybe you’re trying to wipe all sign of your top secret government job; whatever the case may be, you’d probably expect a deleted e-mail to stay deleted.
That’s just not the case with the current iPhone OS.

China knows how to make products. It’s not enough to make this bastard gold-plated - they added flowers! The 999 is $120 from eemobi.cn and has a “gravity sensor” (SENSOR POSITION: DOWN!), a 2.6-inch display, and 1.3-megapixel camera. It also has “7 common games.”

The Palm Pre has taken a lot of heat for its limited App Catalog, which, months after the launch of the device and its respective SDK, still only contains roughly 30 applications. It’s easy to look at the numbers and forget the backstories; the iPhone went a whole year and entire model before they even had an App Store. BlackBerries have long had access to third party apps, but only as of late (seven years after the introduction of the BlackBerry) does RIM have a distribution channel.
