Emporia simple phone

The simple phone meme rolls on…

“For the rest of us, the great news is that an obscure Austrian company has come to its senses and called a halt to miniaturisation and complex-isation…And it’s sold 50,000 of them in a couple of months. Emporia’s phone has no digital camera, no internet access and no instant messaging capabilities. It does have a big red button to call relatives or friends in an emergency, is compatible with hearing aids and can run on over-the-counter AAA batteries.”

    Yeah really good about the Emporia phone, but where can I buy one? The more I read about it the more it’s just what I need, but I can’t locate a vendor, even on the internet.

    the phone is set to be available sometime this month (May) in the UK-has not been available prop to this – I too have investigated lots on internet- seems the details and pictures until now have all been of prototype which was made for the conference / show that it was presented at – so hopefully we’ll be able to buy one this month (heaven knows how much tho!)
