The so-called "Obama phones" are indeed true pieces of shit.
There are also charity type places that give away or sell for $10-20 old used crap as "no SIM emergency call only" "victim" "keep in touch with and track children" phones.
And you can dig around in phone recycle bins.
Yeah, I've noticed these machines at the grocery store lately - you put in your old cell phones, it scans them and prices them out for you right then and there. Anyway, the "obama phones" wouldn't be so bad, except they come preloaded with so much shit software that you don't want and they are too slow to run, and its not uninstallable. Maybe with a cyanogenmod image or something they would be fine, if such a rom exists. -- GPG fingerprint: 17FD 615A D20D AFE8 B3E4 C9D2 E324 20BE D47A 78C7
