A Cellphone Made For Senior Citizens

Posted by Ade as Cellphones, Cool Stuff, Gadgets

Okay, this isn’t really top-of-the-line enough or something I filed under the “OMG I WANT” category, but I find this cellphone to be clever enough I think it warrants an entry here in gadzooki.

This phone has a rather large keypad, making it ideal for the elderly who refuses to let old age get in the way of collecting gadgets. Okay, the name is a bit uninspired (6380 Senior Mobile Phone) but we’re talking about a phone here with a small 128×60 screen, for crying out loud. It’s not supposed to be inspired.

My favorite feature so far has got to be the big red SOS button at the back, designed to automatically dial a pre-set emergency number, and emit a loud warning alarm. It also comes with a flashlight for those times when you need to look for your damn glasses.

You can have it for $75.
