needs a battery which can be bought of eBay for a tenner and the battery is a (EM1) battery. Also,the scroller is broke but can be fixed in all phone shops for less than a tenner. Also you can get the phone unblocked for less than a tenner at any phone shop so it is a very good deal as it will not cost alot to get it going. I just dont have the time to go and get it unblocked and fixed... The phone must be collected and might even swap for a blackberry curve 8520 or a blackberry bold 9700 or 9780!
