Its the pink Samsung U600. Even if i found that phone somewhere else in pay as you go i wouldnt be able to get the pink version of it because it says the pink is only available at Carphone Warehouse.

course you can just put a speakeasy sim card into it if its from the same operator,buying it as a bill phone means you're tied into a 12 month contract though
