Hi all, my ol' gran needs a new mobile, her very old hand me down alcatel which she uses to SMS and call is on it's last legs. I'll gladly buy her a new phone, but I don't really want to have to go through the rigmarole of teaching her (several times) to use it, I want something very very simple without arcane menus and keypresses to get things done, it's all got to be spelt out in big bold letters.

Vodafone (which the Alcatel is with of course) used to sell a phone branded as the "Simply", a Sagem VS2, which I think would be just what is needed, something simply and very clear (not just big type, but saying things like "Good Signal" instead of signal bars), but a quick look on the vodafone.co.nz shows that it's no longer on the market, at least that I can see.

I could buy one 2nd hand I suppose and it may come to that - Trademe lists a couple, but I'd prefer to get her a nice brand new one in a box with that new phone smell, if I can.

So does anybody know if there is an equivalent to the "Simply" Sagen VS2 out there on the market currently?
