It's 320x480 as per the tech specs. I'll put a link to the tech specs in the frontpage post.

I didn't like the fact that it doesn't have 3G. Instead, it's a quad-band GSM + EDGE.
Ditto. I think it's pretty clear the phone is targeted to the consumer, who may not necessarily need 3G. Still, I'm surprised. You'd think a device like this would be ideal for next-gen video or audio.
