Scott, very pleased with Verizon and my Samsung A310 flip-phone. Big clear display, big easy to see buttons, flip it open to answer, close it to hang up, all without looking at it. My wife has a piece-of-junk- Noika that you have to squint and try to hit the tiny buttons----not old blind me! It also survived bouncing out of my pocket and onto the concrete, (twice!) when I have forgotten that it was in my pocket and decided to attempt an impromptu jump shot while walking past the basketball court. Service varies by area, but do try to get a decent phone, it is worth the difference.
