i looked at this phone recently and decided not to purchase it...the phone in my hands felt very cheap and plasticy. The roller camera felt like it was ripped off of a disposable camera. The internal screen was nice, i wish the phone felt better in my hands and not so much like a toy; otherwise i would have purchased it.

The reason I bought this phone was for all the features.
Don't care for the front screen or the pager like look. My previous Samsung was made of metal which made it feel solid. Don't care for the plasticness of this phone, but I bought a cover so I'm just gonna cover it up. Maybe that'll help.
The features on the phone are really nice. Wish aesthetically it was more pleasing.

Cool thing about the A930 is now it's $49.99 and buy one get one free. It does look like a pager when it's closed, though.
