The sad part is that China does NOT need to prepare for war. Want Mutually Assured Destruction? All China has to do is to have their Finance Minister say that they will dump 25% of their US reserves next week. Just say it, mind you, not actually dump them.
The ensuing meltdown will make the last recession look like child's play.
I had on of those. Yes, great design. Yes, had a flashlight. Yes, the battery lasted a lifetime.
But it was a piece of crap nonetheless. It is so tiny that the slightest pressure (like keeping it around in a pocket for a few minutes) would bend the built-in antenna out of whack. The reception would turn awfully bad, and the phone was practically useless after that.
I got a Nokia 2600 after the 1100. Bulkier and sucks more battery than the 1100, but sturdier.
