| 1187361 | 2011-03-19 00:15:00 | What is there that's very, very loud, rugged, largish screen, biggish keys. Don't care about features, not interested in it doing anything other than calling and receiving calls. Preferably something that doesn't cost a fortune. He has one now but it's on the old network, and the plans don';t suit and there are no other choices except for XT, and in any case we'll be forced to XT next year anyway. And no 2Degrees is not suitable, and he won't go Vodafone. |

| 1187362 | 2011-03-19 03:23:00 | Went into a telecom store a few days ago, saw nothing but overpriced ZTE handsets and overpriced smart phones. Telecom is looking cr*ptastic. I'd look at someplace other than a telco store. Can't recommended anything off the top of my head though. |

| 1187364 | 2011-03-19 07:17:00 | A cheap brick phone should do the job, you can pick them up for 100 or less :pf1mobmini: |

| 1187365 | 2011-03-19 19:17:00 | What? No-one knows anything about phones? | pctek (84) | ||
| 1187366 | 2011-03-19 20:26:00 | I suspect not about the type you are looking for . Tried looking on TradeMe?? | paulw (1826) | ||
| 1187367 | 2011-03-19 22:47:00 | They have just launched a new one: R54 (store.telecom.co.nz). Supposed to be 'ruggedised' and splashproof and good for 'clumsy' people.... Not particularly cheap though.... |

| 1187368 | 2011-03-20 06:35:00 | The Samsung i9000 with Gorilla Glass!! :D | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||
| 1187369 | 2011-03-20 07:45:00 | i9000t you mean, the general "i9000" does not support 850Mhz WCDMA (I fell into that trap :p) I was going to say i9000t as well, in in Korea they have cut the prices because of the Galaxy S 2... in NZ they still charge an overrated $999. Unfortunately cheap rugged and large buttons don't come in one phone anymore. those trusty nokias aren't in the game :( |
