Wonderful!
I've been looking for these models anywhere, but can't find them - do they stil excist?

I guess that these 'basic models' is completely without features like;

1. a calendar
2. camera
3. SMS (Paging)
4. games (preinstalled)
5. WAP
6. GPRS
7. Color screen
8. Dictionary
9. Phonebook
10. Voicerecording

just to mention a few...?´

I mean: Simply digit-keys, on/of, mic and speaker?

I'd never dream of buying an eBook reader based on whether or not it'll play MP3 files, or that kind of useless "bells and whistles".
Hmm, well I demand a little bit more (but perhaps t's just me being silly)..;-)
Something like bookmarks, notes, scrolling, connectivity, batteries, earplug, UBSplug, import/export_facilities, dictionary.....Why? Because I believe I can't read without it!
