Not a fan of low-end phones but have to agree that these new Nokia's will sell like hot cakes in developing countries.

Precisely, it has modern styling and is likely to appeal to ppl in the developing countries..and the flashlight, though not all that useful for us users of camera flashes as torches, will still hold a certain charm for the not so lucky ppl...

Well yeah, but kindly explain to me why. My 84 year old dad would turn his nose up at anything with a mono screen, it's 2007 for gods sake.

Dont old discontinued handsets get discounted in your country?, i would much prefer a recently defunkt old model than a new Nokia 1200.

apart from the 1100, none of them have been discontinued here...have they all been discontinued abroad?

Yeah, prices start high over here, but as soon as a model is replaced it's price drops by around 50%, and we have a huge, subsidised PAYG market with handsets roughly at half the normal sim-free price.

well the 1200 is as cheap as the previous models and hardly introduces anything new...so i guess there wont be any price drops here...its basically the same stupid thing with a new cover and casing..when will they stop ripping off the poor?
