Where did anyone get the idea...
That Americans prefer flip phones? It seems like such a large percentage of phones specifically aimed at the US market are flip phones, so it's going to make sense that most US carriers offer so many flip phones, but it seems like circular logic.
This seems like it could be a decent phone (S60 rules!), but there's only so far the design language of clamshell/flip phones can go. That this phone looks similar to the RAZR clones of the past 4.5 years bears witness to that.
unfortunately, a lot of americans don't like pressing buttons to lock their phone..closing a flip phone is much more simpler for them..no thanks to the odd/hard way most manufacturers submit their users into just so they could lock their phone..dunno ...
