If you’ve been looking for a really simple and easy to use phone, Cricket Wireless may have something for you, as they’ve just added the Nokia 1606 to their portfolio. The entry-level clamshell can be used for texting, making and taking phone calls, and that’s about it. It lacks a camera, memory expansion slot and MP3 playback software. However, it is capable for running Cricket games and apps on its 1.8-inch 128×160 pixels screen, if anyone actually cares about it.

The Nokia 1606 could be yours for $129.99 if you grab it in a Cricket store, or for $20 less if bought online.

The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
