For the elderly, who are technologically impaired, there needs to be a phone as easy easy as possible, just to connect to a few essential numbers.

Her hands are weak so it must be flexible and easy to hold. Her hearing is not so good, so it needs a comparitable booster. Her eyes are just okay, so she needs a large, simple easy to use keypad. I can program important numbers for her, however she only needs 4 or 5 at the most. I like the phone that you show on this website. what kind of activation is necessary to use it in the U.S.A.? Can any mobile carrier connect it, and at a very affordable rate. Who, if any carriers are you affiliated with in the U.S.A.? I would appreciate hearing from you ASAP as I will be going to visit her in Florida on November 29th. Ed Green I must have a phone that is easy to use for my mother.

I can immediately think of two people who would greatly benefit from having a life fone, please advise where I can obtain them. regards Marion Manson.
