I would take a dumb phone that didn't call anyone but only texted if it had the advantages of my last dumb phone: week long batter life, drop-ability, and the ability for me to leave it in cabs and have it returned because no one wants it.

I get/make a vanishingly small number of actual voice calls these days.

Sounds like you want a Motorola T900, essentially a two way pager. It runs on a single AA.

Holy crap... I never knew such a thing existed. I'm dumping my mobile phone tomorrow.

Too bad they essentially closed their doors, the Peek was great.
