    And that 40 times a compelling reason why not to by one. I've had a iPhone and they're grossly overrated, personally I prefer my HTC Titan Windows Phone.

    My LG Optimus 7 is the first smartphone I own. Very satisfied with it for almost a year now. I'd only change it for a Nokia Windows Phone (Lumia 800).

        Not quite true. Most people here pay the same price but a little more subtle. I got two Samsung Galaxy S for me and her for $30 each which sounds great for a $900 phone, but…they come with 2 years contract renewal, mandatory shity data plan, GPS usage fees, general plan upgrade etc. Now I’m paying two-three times more monthly as I used to before.

          Well data-plans in India are way more expensive than here too. The one thing that's cheaper is incoming text/voice - which is free in India (all providers).

            It’s the same in Europe. Paying for the incoming calls and sms’ is a specific US “invention”.

                    Seems like a stupid invention. I and many others would have abused the heck out of it in highschool. Don't like someone? Organize a group to send them a barrage of texts.

                                If you’re going to throw your money on Apple, better buy iPad, it’s actually a good product and the Wi-Fi model is not even too overpriced.
