I bet it's something like quick push 1 for 1, slow push 1 for 6; quick push 2 for 2, slow push 2 for 7, etc. (ie. slow push button X for X, slow push button X for X+5).

"When the telephone is switched on you can make emergency service calls by holding down [answer button] until a signalis heard (approx. 4 seconds). Most mobile networks accept emergency calls even if the SIM card is not in the telephone."]]>Nov 23rd 2007 10:38AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/11/22/doros-ridiculously-simple-handleeasy-phones-in-the-wild/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/11/22/doros-ridiculously-simple-handleeasy-phones-in-the-wild/Nov 23rd 2007 12:30AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/11/22/doros-ridiculously-simple-handleeasy-phones-in-the-wild/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/11/22/doros-ridiculously-simple-handleeasy-phones-in-the-wild/

Prices for phones now a days are so expensive BECAUSE they have all these features. The phones that regressed back 20 years ago that are only able to make phone calls cost a hundred some dollars? That is ridiculous!]]>Nov 23rd 2007 2:04AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/11/22/doros-ridiculously-simple-handleeasy-phones-in-the-wild/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/11/22/doros-ridiculously-simple-handleeasy-phones-in-the-wild/

That means that compared to other phones, they ARE cheap. I'd like to see the subsidised/with-contract prices.


As for feature sets ... do they have Bluetooth DUN and HSDPA/HSUPA? If so, I'd be all over the 5 button one. All I need is a bluetooth enabled internet gateway (like a GSM USB dongle, only with bluetooth and a battery). Put it on t-mobile with unlimited internet only, and I'd be golden.

(however, with no screen, I bet they didn't design them with internet capability ... but what I'm getting at is: that 5 button guy has market potential for something other than "really simple voice phone" -> "really simple internet modem")
