Thanks for ur reply guys.

Sorry,but no OFFENSE to anyone.

I know there r so many guys who r way smarter than me and they can unlock,hack and program any mobile number to any phone.

But,those r all mean nothing to me cos ultimately I have to do it myself.

And I don't know how to do it.....:(

And I know very well that I have not paid anyone here.

So,please suggest a simple cheap CDMA phone which can fulfill my requirement..........

Thanks bro.

Yesterday went to rworld.

Saw LG handsets were near 1K range.

They also told that we will get free 500 or 1000min r2r call only with this selected cheap LG sets.

Few Samsung were available but they were expensive.

I think I gonna but one of these LG set.

But,don't know if it got sim slot or not.....

Micromax C2i is a very good VFM phone, good voice quality, excellent talk time (got a 1800 mA battery), and very cheap (price is now further reduced to 1299 on flipkart). Build quality is also much better than the other similar LG, Huawei, and ZTE phones available. And best of all it is not locked to any network. Trust me, go for it eyes closed.
