New Motorola phone. 3rd world only, though.

Too bad. Every time I get a new phone, I always ask for the same things: simple, small, great battery life. A phone to use as a... PHONE. Not a PDA, not a videogame, not a web browser, not a camera.

Finally, a phone that meets those specs. But for the third world only it seems.

If it's anything like my SLVR L7 you'll hate it.

Functions and features are great but the UI is f'n atrocious.

And look at the number keys, they don't line up in a straight line.

You'll misdail for months beore you get used to it.

You can have my L7 cheap. It's unlocked so works with every carrier.

I'm glad I'm with Nextel. Up until this year they didn't have camera phones, MP3 player phones, or any of that expensive junk that makes phone difficult to use.

Yeah I guess there are other phones like that already. Here's another ultra-slim, very simple phone (90 x 50 x 8.8mm). Verizon sucks--we never get anything that's not a year or two out of date.

funny how you cant just buy a phone. I've never used the camera or email in mine.

hehe, I don't even use text (unless I'm in another country).

I thought I was the only one who wanted a phone and not a damn computer I have to wait for to boot up when I turn it on, and have a bunch of features(?) that I never use

I bought a $20 Nokia from ebay. It works great as has the other 3 basic nokias that I've had for years.
