My BIL had a stroke 5 years ago and finds it increasingly difficult to use his Nokia E50- due to the small buttons. He wants a Nokia with largish buttons and display. He does not need a camera but needs bluetooth to use through his SATNAV. Any ideas anyone??

    I would think that one of the older nokia models would be probably best - the new ones have smallish and awkward keys for even the most of able person.
    The Nokia 6310i springs to mind - barring that its the likes of the 3110 which looks to have slightly bigger buttons.

    The advantange of the older models is the buttons are more "feely" on the fingers (if that makes sense) - more the traditional simple design before the emergence of the fancy one block keypads.

    And ebay is probably the best to place to find the older model.
