Hi all, my blackberry has died, fortunately I had done a very recent backup so all my stuff is still there, do not want another blackberry as too full of bugs, so looking for suggestions from all you knowledgeable people, simplest if I list my needs in order of importance.....has to have a very loud ring, and vibrate, needs a large clear incoming call display so I can see who is calling without fumbling for my glasses at the same time as extracting phone from pocket, a key pad is preferred, good battery life, no flips or sliders they get full of grit too quick, but a flip cover for screen is OK, a camera is also OK, I am not interested in browsing or games, a strong efficient phone is the main requirement, thanks all, Rick

thanks Pete but it does not have a button key pad, and as my fingers do not respond as they used to, touch screens are not good, the blackberry was great but the ringer used to tun off by itself, most times messages would not scroll, incoming calls the back light was very slow to come on sometimes not at all, no good to me when I can get as many as 20 incoming a day when working as am at the mo, and need to be able to see who is calling to decide if to answer or not when seeing in a large delivery, Rick
