Remember the Samsung u430 that we mentioned in June? It is an entry level cellphone so maybe it didn’t cause any good impressions for you to remember, but the good news is that Verizon officially launched the phone. It is available online for $100 with a 1-year contract, but if you opt for a 2-year contract the cellphone costs zero.

Why is Verizon offering the u430 for free? Because you can’t get a cellphone more simple than that. The colorful (65K) TFT screen measures 1.9-inches, and provides a resolution of 128×160 pixels. It can make/receive calls, and send/receive text messages – how useful, isn’t it? Other details include bluetooth, a phone book with a maximum of 500 entries, and a media center that lets you download games and ringtones.
