Yes, that's the one. It took a week to get comfy with it, but I love it.
I only needed sporadic email coverage so it worked out great. And now
I've started TXTing since the full keyboard removes what I hated about
TXTing (cycling through 4 letters per key).

And "Monopoly - Here & Now" plays great on it! It has saved me from
bordom-induced suicide during flight delays.

It also has a very good sounding speakerphone that I actually use. Other
cell speakerphones left me unimpressed.
