I told her to get a clamshell phone because she then didn't have to worry about it being keylocked when in her bag. I also told her to get a Nokia or Sony Ericsson as their user interfaces are more intuitive to Danes (yes, we're Danish) - something I know for a fact after having worked in the mobile business for some years. People like the design of Samsung and Motorola, but get really annoyed with the user interface. In the end, the 2650 was cheap and came with a reasonable PAYG solution from the operator Tele2. Note: my mum never had a mobile before, so I wanted to start out very basic not to scare her. My mum bought a Nokia 2650, as I recommended.
