Anyone else pick up a Nokia 520/521 on the cheap?

Just ordered one for cheap.

Am planning on using the device completely untethered from AT&T as WI-FI only. Will make for a good cheapie music player and browser on the go. Am interested to see how the device plays out.

It's a pretty pimp device, especially for the price. We've had quite a few threads on it. Suffice to say there's nothing on the Android side, let alone the iOS side that can touch this thing on when the price is considered.

Though I do want to look at the new Mediatek quad core devices TMobile will start offering soon for $100.

Its missing a flash - only thing that bugs me about it, otherwise its the best budget phone available.

You can buy prepaid models here brand new for $99 and unlock them

I did, pretty happy with it. I don't think you can pick up any other smartphone in that price range that won't suck.
