Anti-Smartphone Phone Launched For Technophobes

geek4 writes "A Dutch company has launched what it calls 'the world's simplest phone,' targeting users who are sick of new-generation models. 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."

You know..I could see a use for just a fscking phone...BUT...I'd need text I think.

I never really even knew much about it...till just after Katrina, and then discovered it was about the only way to communicate with anyone via cell phone who had a 504 area code.

I've steadily gotten more and more hooked on it, even with the extra cost. Hell, these days...I txt pretty much everything, and rarely use the voice call unless I need a quick clarification or am driving.
