Nice to see this story. I really like having a simple phone that lasts a week before having to be recharged. I do not understand why there is no major cell phone producer having a line of simple, dumb phones that are not low end, but having a decent design, e.g. metal casing as Nokia 6300 or 6303i. I would really like to buy a simple phone having just the basic functions of voice calls and texts, alarms, a battery lasting a week, no camera or other bells and whistles, but a nice design, for around $50. Why nobody produces this? Current Nokia low end products are too plasticky, with no particular care for the design. Maybe someone can start a business for catering to this need.
