I just enlisted last month as an NSF and it took me quite some time to find an adequete non-camera phone that I could use for the next 2 years. Unfortunately my old Nokia 3100 kept dying on me so I had to go searching for a new phone. One of my friends is spending a thousand bucks on a Blackberry and getting it from the USA, but I don't have that kind of money, so I went around searching for affordable non-camera phones, which can be like searching for a needle in a haystack.
I've compiled all my findings and experiences in the following article:
Top Three Latest (Yet Affordable) Non-Camera Mobile Phones
I hope this is not considered as spam or anything. I truly did spend time and effort on that article and I hope it'll be of use to future enlistees :D
you can get the e51(non-cam). or if you want, i have nokia 6610?
nokia 8250..
many military personnel uses the SE w950 and M600 i think those are the models if im not wrong.. comes with stylus pen, touch screens, mp3s etc just no cameras.
I have nokia 8850 gold edition. beautiful and no camera good to use in army..
can consider HTC Snap...
i heard its quite good.
So far I have more positive than negative things to say about my HTC Snap, but it has the feel of an unfinished product to me.
