Includes:
Phone
1gb Sandisk Memory Stick Pro Duo

Again, the phone is unlocked for use with mp3 ringtones (unlike the Rogers locked version). Larger than standard memory card for your mp3 and photo needs.

Modded back cover does an excellent job of preventing fingerprints or scratches to the lens, however if you would prefer to have the original I will replace it. Package includes both covers as well as a brief tutorial in regards to replacing the back cover

Phone and accessories come in the original box with manuals included.

Local pickup in Markham or GTA, shipping at buyer's expense.

Asking $200obo

What does this mean? [unlocked for use with mp3 ringtones]

Most carriers lock out these features so that you can't download mp3 songs and load them onto your phone (ie, getting a phone through Rogers or Bell for example). There are simple software/hardware hacks out there that enable someone to unlock these features, so that you can upload mp3 files to them and also apply java or linux hacks to mod the crap out of them. So this phone has that software/hardware hack that allows him to upload mp3 files to make cool ringtones.

Hope that explains it....

Yeah that pretty much covers it. The rogers version of this phone doesn't allow you to use mp3s as ringtones leaving you with what you have originally with the phone.

Another benefit of an unlocked phone is when you're going to another country, you can pop in a local sim and have it working perfectly, set up a pay as you go plan if you're going away for a few weeks or something. I've done it once and it works perfectly.

Also, this phone is a great mp3 player, the in ear headphones are awesome, if I could keep them believe me I would lol.
