Yeah, now the guy is starting to play with it, I'm not holding out a lot of hope. To me, the size is utterly perfect, but I would not be using it as a phone. But then again, maybe he'll like the other phone he has on order better. I expect I'll know one way or the other in a week or so. Hubby is keeping cash handy in case the guy swings towards selling again.

As for a sim card, I have nothing against one, I just don't HAVE one, and the phone is an AT&T version, so I assume it is locked. It may be capable of being unlocked without two much difficulty, but at the moment, it's all moot unless the guy decides to sell.

If I could afford a data plan, I'd have no qualms about using it as a phone in addition to a tablet, but I'm not big on phone use, and for me, the 5" size is like the perfect tablet. I have longish fingers, I rarely need a stylus to hit links on my player, and the size just feels right in my hand.

Wish Samsung would put this out as an upgraded player/tablet device with just the WiFi for say $350 and I'd be on it!
