Telstra EasyCall 2 Mobile Phone (Image copyright (c) 2011, Gary Stark)<\/figcaption><\/figure>But I can tell you with a high degree of confidence that one thing that a lot of people want is a basic mobile phone. One that has big buttons, and a large, clear, bright screen which can be easily read.<\/p>\n

Oh yes, it should also make phone calls. <\/p>\n

Other feature, like having a camera, a fully comprehensive address book, the ability to play games, the need to watch movies are significantly less important. To the point of being a “who cares?” factor.<\/p>\n
