I'll take a look at the A60; it sounds promising.

@abs: Sounds like your mom and mine dropped from the same planet. Mine currently uses a Nokia 3310. Hardly does ANYTHING else with it besides calls. My recommendations:
- 3310
- 1100
- 2100

3310 is big, it was my previous phone. Get a 1100, hassle free operation, slim and it lasts almost a week without recharging if you use it conservatively.
or get 3100 for color display. Looks good and has everything in a neat layout.
If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence of your attempt !! |

Got my mum a Z200 and she's loving it, loves the ringtones and after sitting down with her for maybe an hour or less she had most things in hand. it has IR if you want to easily transfer your contacts so that all they have to do is pick them out of the phone book.
Simple to use phone, no camera, no bt, covers so they can personalise but yeah, great parent phone. Clam shell so the screen is protected too.  |

I got mine a used Nokia 6100 about 2 months ago. After about an hour of training, she seems not to have any problems... |

I totally agree with @sevastos here, the Nokia 6100 is just one of the best choice! There is also this Samsung small color-red fone (just forgot the model), just almost 'half' of that of the Nokia 6100, a flip-type at that, that will just be nice for Mommy as well  ! |
