Hi George, This is going to sound very vague and I could probably find out more info if you want it. My mother currently has a Nokia 20 something or other which is a basic phone. If you want it to make calls, send texts but not much more, then I'd recommend it as it was very easy to teach her how to use, even though I can't see it myself and had to rely on her reading the screen.

The mice have eaten the original, and made nests of the two tin cans I was using. IR: If you wait until next spring Microsoft will be releasing their new version of string, called "Rope 2006". Only drawback, the old tin cans won't work with it. instead you'll have to go and by new ones! :-) regards.
