T-Mobile’s prepaid cell phone service will have a new handset added to its roster with the Nokia 1661.  This model is a low end phone in the candy bar shape.  

No prices have been released, but most people agree that this phone will be cheap.  It’s another addition for T-Mobile users to choose from, especially as the price won’t scare away the dedicated subscriber base who tend to want affordable options.

The Nokia handset has one interesting element that hasn’t been seen too much on cell phones (except probably in Asia, where the phones are pretty advanced and over the top)–the head of the phone doubles as a flashlight.  I can definitely see the use of this option as sometimes I flip my phone open to use the light from the screen as a light when it’s dark.  Still, this phone is primarily just for making good old fashioned phone calls.
