G3 phones are acceptable and are not smart phones. Consider calling AT&T Special Needs Division and ask what is available. Best Wishes In a message dated 3/21/2016 4:33:27 P.M. Central Daylight Time, [email protected] writes:
Larry, I’m in the same boat. Using my 19 year old daughter’s 1st phone she got when she was 8. It is 2G and I received my AT&T letter too, I just have put off calling them. I don’t need or want a smart phone.

ATT said they will no longer support it in a few months, so I have no choice. The rest of my family have iPhones. Of course, I need something easy to operate. Any Suggestions?
