Like most phones, I've waited until it is about 8+ months old and have then gone out and bought it when on sale. Picked up one of these for about 160 EUR if google conversion is right, which makes me wonder WTF were they thinking listing this at ~350 EUR.
Short of it is, I think it is worth it at this price. I know SD435 isn't a workhorse cpu, but if you only do basic browsing, youtube etc. this is perfect.
