Looks like there's a really affordable 3.5-capable phone out there, and it happens to be the E90's smaller brother.
The Nokia E51 can do HSDPA, WiFi, has limited multimedia capabilities, and fits easily into the pocket despite these. And I was really amazed when I found out that it only goes for less than Php 13,000 on the Philippine grey market. At current exchange rates, that's just above $300!
Granted, the price is still quite mid-range, but when you consider what the E51 is capable of, you'll agree with me that it's quite a steal! Even more so when you consider that, based on personal experience, the phone's battery can last more than 3 days!
