Default Is it actually possible to find a mobile without a camera?!?

I don't need a friggin camera
I don't need bleedin' java
I don't need video messaging
I don't want to play games on it
I don't want to listen to MP3's
I don't want sat nav on it

I JUST WANT TO MAKE / TAKE CALLS ON THE DAMN THING!!!

I just lost my Motorola which had nearly all of the above crap, and found my old 3210e which is like a breath of fresh air!

Isn't there a range of phones for retards like me ?!?

I've got a Nokia 3120. It makes calls and sends texts.
You can pick them up for £30-40. My monthly bill is around £2.
Total yearly outlay = £54.

<laughs at muppets who pay £40/month for latest & greatest phones>

It even looks nae bad, standby time of 7+ days, and is smaller than most.

You forgot to mention :

Bluetooth, Push to Talk, MMS, IRDA, WiFi, GPRS, WAP, etc etc

A telephonic device is for talking to people on

My gran has just bought a SE W800i - you'll hate it, as it does everything

She loves it, apart from it won't pick up radio 4

Somehow I don't think Sony marketed the phone for that particular age group
