It works fine for my needs.
Changed my mind. It suddenly stopped recognizing the sim card. Last week it was my neighbor's Orbic. Now mine. Terrible phone.

Even for free, and even for a flip phone, the Orbic is sorely lacking, to say the least.
Why am I not shocked? Get a kyocera while you still can, or at least the alcatel V

Is there any 2G bands still up and running in the US?

Had an idea using this chip, if anyone has any leads please share.

Update:
It's a 2G only chip, but apparently T-Mobile still has their 2G network up.
