I had one in high school. The design was kinda gimmicky but the phone had good features for its time. it had an FM radio receiver, and I remember you could even transfer MP3 files onto it, although it was a hassle to do so.

The beat feature was the "0" button being in the corner of the device, and it would dial 000 several times per week while in my pocket. There was no way to lock the keypad.
