Just a Phone?

Posted by timothy on from the reversing-bloat dept.

LiquidCoooled writes "Vodafone in the UK have released a mobile phone which caters to those people craving a simple handset. For far too long we have been overpowered by extras we don't need; this looks to be a very nice solution. These phones feature a large format screen and buttons and a simple interface making this phone more accessible to a larger audience." I'd sure prefer better sound and simpler menus to the useless camera and gimmicks built into my current phone.

    For £80, why bother? You can get phones with features for this price. Maybe if it was cheaper, then I would buy one, but what's the point of just stripping all the features away then charging essentially the same amount?

    my point exactly, but I was modded redundant for saying it

    I'm actually surprised somebody is doing this, but I am so glad. I am sick of phones with all this crap on them.

    Now, just need an iDen version.
