my first love was a "MING" or A1200 what we call in the states. I went on a business trip to Singapore back in 04 and i wound up picking one up for about $300 or $350 USD
..prior to that ive had all types of phones but nothing was like the MING.
from that one going foward ive had: Tilt>Fuze on At&t>Touch Pro on VZW and now the Touch Pro 2 on VZW
