I honestly love my Nokia 106 in general. There are a couple of menus which are inconsistent, color is unnecessary, and the background images are ???; but despite all of that, it has been excellent and gives reliable calls. Sadly GSM is going down in Canada for good next year. I'd love to have a 106-shaped LTE or HSPA phone with multilingual input and display. Essentially no other device would make me happier. I have learned to love T9, it is very comfortable once you are used to it; and it maps very well to Japanese (though not available on this device). If I ever need to get a smartphone again, I'm using a T9 keyboard on it. I wonder if they'd hire me...

I've gotten one as well after my beloved v3i passed away. In terms of value for money it is alright. Yet I wonder why dumb phones aren't perfected by now. Apart from the menu issues and the indeed horrible backgrounds (went with the blueish one) I am annoyed that you can neither set the brightness of the display nor the volume of the alarm clock. When it wakes you up in the morning its brightness and loudness are incredibly painful. In fact, at night I cover my phone with whatever textile product lies around to make the alarm clock less harsh.
