Detailed review
I still keep and use this as my secondary phone (my primary is a X820) -- I use it for overseas travel as it has more radios and a better battery life. It's form factor and size make it very useful for slipping into a jacket pocket and taking it with you. No particularly stunning features (though java midlets can be downloaded) -- just works, no surprises, and convenient. Things like setting the "lock system" timer relatively low makes it simple to drop in your pocket without the "pocket calls" that occur often in candy-bar form factors.

I've have the purple one that came with a T-Mobile account, and I've been happy with it. My wife uses it as her primary phone. If you don't have high expectations based around smart phones, then you'll be very happy with this phone. The bluetooth integration is very good -- moving contacts and pictures on and off work seamlessly. You might even be surprised by how good the camera is!

Some really cute features are available -- associate a picture with an incoming call, or distinctive rings based on the call.
