OK, I revise my previous answer... IF you are precluding devices capable of getting on the internet altogether, then that boat sailed circa 2005. I'm not really kidding... That's when Cingular and Verizon switched off their Analog towers, and forced everyone over to Digital... ALL of the Digital-voice capable phones have always been more electronic than electrical.
Although (And this feels strongly reminiscent of a rant I went on during your transition to Linux about the nature of "Multiuser"), I'm not convinced you actually understand what you're asking for. A flip phone will be more remeniscent of a dial-up terminal (The kinds used by telecoms back in the 1980s to dial into data centers) than a functional computer; Yes, it may have a "Web Browser," but no one would be satisfied with it's support for HTML or CSS; And it might also have a VERY limited Java virtual machine, but it is VERY limited (For both security reasons, and technical limitations). I'm really not sure what you THINK your after, but that Samsung is about as "Dumb" as anything I was suggesting... -- Tyrell Jentink On Tue, Dec 22, 2015 at 11:03 PM, Richard Owlett <[email protected]> wrote: > On 12/22/2015 11:57 PM, wes wrote: > > I'll mail you my Samsung SGH-A107 if you want it. > > > > http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003MW0OIQ > > > > -wes > > Thanks for the reply. > However <*GRIN*>, it has two down-checks: > 1.
