There's a new ox-phone out:

A Dutch company has launched what it calls “the world’s simplest phone”, targeting users who are sick of new-generation models
Quote:
Only capable of making and receiving calls, John’s Phone is dubbed the world’s simplest mobile phone, specifically designed for anti-smartphones users.

It does not provide any hi-tech features. No apps. No Internet. No camera. No text messaging. All you have to do – in fact, all you can do – is call, talk and hang up.

From the article

Quote:
In an effort to make it extremely retro, John Doe also provides a small paper-based address book and a pen for storing contacts. They can be slid into the back of the phone.


What I don't get however, is the £60-80 price tag. A phone such as this should be sub £20. Still, they'd be easy to sell!

Is this the part where I rant about a phonebook being an unnecessary frill? :P

Also, I wouldn't buy this phone, since

a) it's ridiculously expensive for what it is (60-80 quid wha!)
b) it can't send text messages

My current phone only cost me 40€. :roll: And text messages save me a lot of money on calls. So...DEALBREAKER!

EDIT: Ninja'd by Mole!

Most of the phones that are super easy to use carry a price tag premium for that ease-of-use. And yea, I know, ox-phones have to be super cheap. I was still thinking about you!

I can read Ninjas on your avatar, but have no idea wtf the rest of that is about.

I would say it's the same pic but with a picture of Him and his kid stealing his drink?
