Re: [Skunkworks] Touch screen phone

I have decided to go way above my budget to get the Samsung Galaxy S. These cheap phones are just useless. It is my wife who wants one and I cannot get all the features she described in a cheap phone. Allan Ouma P.O.

For one it runs Android 2.1 and the screen is not capacitive as mentioned. Its resistive and poorer display than ideos besides costing moeny. I bought it for my wife and bought the ideos later so I know what im talking about.

Hello Skunkers,
I want to buy a nice touch screen phone with memory card support but my budget cannot go beyond Ksh 17,000. Any advice on the best phone for that price? I do NOT want the IDEOS. Any help with this will be appreciated. I have tried the Safaricom website and I think it hasn't been updated for a while.
Any help? Allan Ouma P.O. Box 12731 Nairobi 00400 Kenya
