[nabs-l] cell phones

[Kaiti Shelton]

Hi Amy, Hi Amy,

If you're looking for something similar to the Haven with buttons and
a simple layout, the Envy phones are still in production and do a
decent job, especially 3 I think.  I know some people who have it and
love how simply it's set up.

I personally advocate for the IPhone, but then again I do tend to use
it more as a mini-computer for things like checking emails as I'm
walking from one class to another or using it as a gps/music
player/metronome and tuner for practicing music than actually talking
or texting.

Good luck.  :)
