There is a large group of people who don't care about camera phones or ringtones. They want to make emergency calls and be able to see the buttons and hear the conversation. The Great Lakes Geek learned about a cell phone that does just that called Jitterbug when he was at CES in Las Vegas. The Jitterbug has a lot of features geared toward seniors. It has a softer ear cushion and better volume controls than typical cell phones. The buttons are large and colorful and the phone ships with your favorite numbers already programmed in. Plus they have a live person ready to walk you through any problems - 24 x7 Check out the Jitterbug.com if you or someone you know could use this type of phone.
