My very first cellphone was a Nokia, all those years ago. It was a large, heavy, brick-like thing that could alternately be used for self-defense if necessary.
I actually think there's a market for these as "teenager" phone. No kid should have camera/data capability on the go.
This phone will have a camera though. Not that it ever stopped parents from buying their kids phones with cameras.
