Alcatel Phone ? 

Alcatel does not exist any longer . After the merge with Lucent , it is now , Alcatel-Lucent and the company does not produce Mobile phones.

The former Alcatel Mobile phones business has been sold to a chinese manufacturer who also purchased the rights to use the "Alcatel" brand

Rather go for the Samsung E250 

It's £25 from Carphone Warehouse, is a 'cool' slider phone and has lot's of features. Just bought one for my daughter, she's delighted.
