    OK, here's the thing about this phone - it's a Windows phone. :) In terms of usability and operation, it's just as fast as the Lumia 928. The battery management is typical of WP8 - excellent. The battery lasts a long time. The screen is not as saturated as the 928, which is to be expected since it's LCD rather than LED. But it's pixel density is higher and you get more info in a smaller space since it's aspect ratio is slightly different, getting more pixels in. It's also a lot more compact than the 928.

    The phone is rock solid and stable - WP8 runs beautifully.

    Let's not forget that it charges wirelessly. Also the camera, while perhaps not up to the 928 standards, is still pretty darn good. Long story short, if I didn't have the 928, I'd simply keep this and be very happy with it. But the 928 fits my largish hand better and I don't need two WP8 units, so as difficult as it is to make the decision this one gets the axe.

    Black. The only proper color for a phone! Well, not the only proper color maybe, but that's the color this one is :) That's why the blue case comes along with it - to cater to your sense of whimsy. Or something. I liked the color on it. The goodie are the SIM ejector tool, charger and manuals. If you want, I can supply a wireless Nokia charger for another $20.

    Yeah, it's probably not worth relocating for :)

    Another nibble - no bites yet. This is a good phone in need of a home. It doesn't stare at you with big brown eyes and have a sad Sarah Mclachlan song playing in the background (although I'm tempted to make a video of it like that) but it's too nice to sit in a box.

    OK, I'm beginning to think this poor guy is just going to have to stay with me. Sad - he doesn't see much if any use. Make me an offer and we can talk.

    Friendly bump. This is a really fantastic deal! I'm surprised no one has taken you up on the offer. It is a really good phone. If I didn't already have one I would buy it.

    That's it. Now I'm going to have to post a sad song from one of those ASPCA commercials here so you feel sorry for it and buy it.
