Don't get it unless you're super duper interested in how it looks because it's a drag using it for the following reasons:
1. the texting issue - if your friends aren't verizon wireless you won't know who's sending you what text messages
2. very difficult to get ringtones (and the ringtones you can get are crappy quality) and transfer files overall (unless it's with another SKY phone)
3. the SKY IM-U160 is a DMB phone which you cannot use anywhere outside of Korea

Um... I already know that which is why I also knew about the texting problem - I have a SKY IM-U160 but I got a U170 so I'm using that right now... =___=lol

I really want this phone too. I don't care that it can't do much. I basically just want it to be able to see/make calls, alarm function, take ok pix, fairly easy to use, have like 3 nice ringtones of songs i like and a english interface would be nice. I'll try my best to read korean if they don't have that option. Hopefully my requirements will be met. I want it solely for the looks. It would be nice to be able to watch video or play mp3s though. Anyone know if it works with Sprint? Because I'm thinking of getting that carrier.
