Sprint's SCP-7000 - A Handset for Tough People

Sprint has released, at the same time with the king of storage Sanyo M1, the SCP-7000 cell phone, also developed by Sanyo, a device targeting not only the users with a budget oriented wallet but also, as I can guess from its looks, at the ones that like handsets with a lot of stamina and that can go through lots of accidents without suffering very much damage.

Why is this device able to withstand the unleashed fury of someone with a mind set on the destruction mode? Mainly because of its Dura-Grip rubber surface that will protect it against all kinds of accidents and, at the same time, adding to the recipe a more sure hold and a plus of comfort.

Not only is the SCP-7000 able to live a stressful life without being affected but it will also offer its owner access to the Sprint Power Vision multimedia network that comes with a bunch of advanced wireless services like messaging through email, text messages or even chat rooms, gaming through single-player or multiplayer enabled games, web surfing or walkie talkie conversations with your friends or family through the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.

You will also be able to use parental controls to block access to some of the Sprint Power Vision services that might contain offensive material or to restrict incoming and outgoing calls to limit the monthly bill you will have to pay for your kid's cell phone. If you do decide to buy such a phone for your kids, then you will also be glad to know that the SCP-7000 has interchangeable faceplates so the phone color discussion will be eradicated from the start; if the boy (or girl) wants another color, you just change the face of the phone and "abracadabra"- here comes the recolored handset.

The price tag sticked by Sprint on this one shows a price of 179.99 $ for the customers that like buying themselves phones the old fashioned retail way, or 29.99 $ for the ones that go for the more fashionable service agreement method.
