I need a new cell phone, for reasons that I don't really feel like going into. Since most people are not as violently electronic leash-averse as I, I assume that a fair number of you know more about options and models than I do, and so I am turning to you for help.
The following features are mandatory:
-The ability to make and receive calls and text messages.
-Being a fold-able phone, Star Trek communicator-style. I hate those short phones that are all the raaage.
-Being AT&T compatible.
-Being reasonably sturdy (I'm not going to be dropping it on asphalt, but I keep my phone in a pocket or loose in my purse, sans holster, and this isn't likely to change any time soon).
The following features would be nice bonuses:
-Decent speakerphone.
-No built-in camera, or easy-to-disable built-in camera.
-Has no or as few features not listed above as possible.
-Comes in black or an equally unremarkable color.
-Costs less than $70 U.S.
