Good as a phone, not so good at entertainment

The Good
The phone is very good as a phone, it is light, small, affordable (if second hand), stylish and has lots of space for Text messages. There are also 5 shortcut keys that can be used to open anything on the phone, i.e. you can write a new text message by the press of a button, rather than going to "menu", then "messages", then "create message" and finally "text message". Their are 25 possible shortcuts, including switching to Silent mode from Loud, turning on the radio, you can even set the time by the press of a button! The signal strength always seems to be very good, a lot better than my old phone. The phone can be customized with pictures for the exterior screen and a different picture for the interior screen, you can also add screen savers that can be different for both screens.
The bad
A few problems I have had with the phone mostly revolve around the lack of space for songs and games. You only get about 2 or 3 megabytes of space. A mp3 song takes up about 1 megabyte and a good game, like splinter cell takes up about 0.3 megabytes. My brother has a phone that actually costs the same amount as this one and it has at least 30 megabytes of space (I don't know the actual value, it is a lot though).
Another problem I found, which isn't such a problem but more just something to complain about, is the general slowness you get when using the phone, you press a button and have to wait about a whole second for it to load. It doesn't happen very often (about 15% of the time) and it may not sound like a big problem but it can be frustrating if you just want to get something done. Also, I was told that there is no bluetooth on this phone.
Summary
+stylish & small
+extra signal strength
+lots of space for messages
+shortcuts to get anywhere quickly
-lack of space for entertainment
-sometimes it takes a moment to load
-no bluetooth
I bought the phone because I am not particularly interested in bluetooth or entertainment on my phone, I just wanted a modern phone that does what I need it to do. I also thought it was unique, I haven't seen anyone with this phone (except me).
