Neither phone seems to be in Speakout's current line up. Some stores could have old stock though. I am sure you can get them used at kijiji for a decent price.

If you do not see a particular phone on the SpeakOut site, then it's not offered by SpeakOut anymore. The Nokia 5130 is about 2-3 years old. You probably won't find it in a 7-Eleven, as most stores rotate their stock fairly quickly and do not keep phones that old. As Bridonca said, your best bet would be Kijiji, or even eBay.

The 5130 is probably the best phone ever sold by speakout.

And as such, you'll probably not find them in stores anymore

I've never had the 7230, but I love my 5130. I agree with Fefrie. It's the best phone so far that SpeakOut has offered.

Hard to say if the 7230 is better than the 5130. The 7230 is a 3G phone, of which the 5130 is 2G only, but it is not as multimedia oriented as the 5130 was. It can play everything the 5130 can though. It is mostly about personal taste.

If I was going to get a President's Choice Mobility/Bell Nokia phone, I would make sure it can be unlocked cheaply. I made that mistake with the Bell Nokia 2730, which has close to the same specs as the 7230 but is really expensive to unlock.

Thank you very much for all help and suggestions imdrumming and bridonca will check with the 7-11 if the phone can be ordered as he mentioned.
