I can't say I have heard of these people but the phone looks pretty good, and not totally un-RAZR like, though not particularly well featured.

But for those wanting something inconspicious...

I posted the exact same thread last year but can't seem to find it right now...hope you haven't deleted it masseur?

Just to mention aswell that this will be available in U.K from next month on PAYG for the bargain basement price of £70.

I did a fairly thorough search, of course, but didn't find anything

I didn't see any pricing so that extra info is pretty good

aha! now that you mentioned you posted it I decided to expand my search a little and found

VK Releases Four Slim Phones for the european and global markets (Esato news)

VK Releases Four Slim Phones for the european and global markets (a thread for the news)

seems I couldn't find it before because they changed the name of this device now

edit: @batesie, have you seen how much T66 are going for lately on ebay? I've seen £40-£60 !!! I'm glad I got my pink one fully boxed with manual late last year for just £13

I do like the small compact size of this coupled with the razr looks!

indeed, i saw one go (i missed it) for £18 with box. but recently theyve been selling like hotcakes!
i may well get a VK as a backup phone, as i was impressed with the NEC N900..... [addsig]

VK is a korean manufactuer if my memory serves my correctly, vodafone have been selling there phones for a good while now and there pants! they have nothing in them and they fall to pieces and the software is terrible,

In my store we get about 10 of these vk phones back for repair each week! and when the first came out it was more like 10 a day! i would stay well away from these phones if i was you!

you have been warned! lol
