My mom dropped her cell phone.
Last few days I've been looking for a replacement for her; unfortunately, I only know about smartphones now, and her usage model doesn't justify a smartphone.
Nevertheless, I made her try out the iPhone and a WP7 phone to see if she might like those: she hated the touchscreen. I asked her to try a BB bold and she said "the buttons are too small."
So I think I'm looking for a dumb phone with a nice, large physical dialpad, a no-nonsense high contrast display, durable and reliable, and at least 6+ hours of talk time.
Everything else is extra; she doesn't text, she doesn't e-mail, she doesn't listen to music, I think she's used the camera on her current phone once in the past 2 years, and she doesn't use any bluetooth accessories.
She will remain with AT&T, and I am 99.9% sure I will buy the phone off contract. I really don't know anything about dumb phones post-moto RAZR, so does anyone have any suggestions to what I should look for?
Thanks
