Then the Chocolate is DEFINATELY for you!!

How long has it been since your last upgrade at a dicounted price? If's it's been at least a year and your on a plan of at least $69.99 or higher, than you could get it for for the $199.99 price.

  • RAZR V3m silver
    Nokia 6315i

    Is the V3m a good music player? Does the music play well over its speaker?
