HTC FREESTYLE
IS THIS A GOOD PHONE TO GET ,IF YOU DONT WANT A SMART PHONE I WANT A TOUCH SCREEN AND I LIKE THIS ONE ANY SUGGESTIONS 😁

Where - if at all - can apps be obtained for the Freestyle???
Are apps available for the Freestyle? And if so - where? Or would GETJAR be the only source?
Hmm, until I read the specs I thought it was android based. It certainly looks like one. Why in blazes go with BREW? That's like using DOS or Windows ME.
Wow, with all the tech all now they make a BREW device.

Does this phone have a text signature? 🙂
Why would anyone buy this phone?
I am an owner of an HTC Inspire 4G. I pay $15.00 a month for data. If I had bought the HTC Freestyle, I'd still pay $15.00 a month for data. I realize it doesn't require a data plan, but realistically, you'll want to have one. Otherwise, you might as well get a simple flip phone and be done with it.
As for the phone price, I bought my Inspire at the no commitment price, so the Freestyle would be $100.00 less. The huge decrease in functionality, in my opinion, wouldn't be worth saving $100.00.
Nice feature phone (HTC's Sense UI rocks), but ultimately not worth it.

unlimited internet on a feature phone is only $10 as long as you have family messaging unlimited, or unlimited messaging....most people who buy this phone are gonna have unlimited messaging, or they wouldn't be considering it as an option. not everyon...

what a GENIUS first post. you must be sooo proud.
opera mini
the reason why Opera Mini doesn't work is simple: this phone is based on Brew, which is like the enemy of Java. Opera Mini is written in Java and requires a good JVM (except for a couple of native ports).
personally, I would not buy ANY phone that did not support Java... particularly a dumbphone... you got to have Java on a dumbphone -- no other way you'll get decent apps. Brew is too limited...
