Cellphone for mom?

[kachofool]

Hey all... I'm looking for a cellphone for my mom. I was thinking a simple bar phone or flip, easy to use menus, good display, tactile buttons, etc. I want the phone to have decent sized internal memory (so she can store a lot of contacts) and expandable memory for music or something wouldn't hurt.

I don't need anything overloaded with features since my mom probably won't make use of 'em. I was thinking of an Ericsson w810i. Do you peeps have any other suggestions, or comments about the w810i?

TiA!

the w810 is nice, but the keys are pretty small.

I would look in to a samsung flip phone, They have nice keys, they have easy to use menus, big numbers when you are typing them in, pretty solid phones, etc.
I haven't had too many people complain about a samsung phone.
nokia's are good too, the 3555, 6085/6086.
Even the 5310 would be a good choice, the buttons aren't too bad, has a standard headphone jack for music, ok camera, expandable memory, etc.

Get her in to a multi-carrier store, or whatever company you wanted to go with, and let her use the phones, typing, etc. see what one she likes the best.

If she hasn't had a cellphone before I wouldn't worry about the phone nearly as much. This is a great plan for a person who doesn't use it much. This deal expires at the end of the year:
