I feel dumb, but what is the difference between a feature phone and smartphone?
Edit: Figured it out, apparently it is just the old phones.

I find it strange to be hearing murmurs of Nokia has some new thing going on all the while they are being sold off. I hope the employees don't find out they've been sold out on twitter.
I would just request that nokia e51 & e71 be reintroduced. 9300i with pure android/cyanogen would be a treat. Do what apple did to SE, which is 5s with old shape but new internals. The only thing I miss in my e51 is its ability to sync contacts with gmail. I have my e51 since its launch back in 2006. It's on its last leg and would love a replacement. Please make it all dual sim.
I do not want a smart device with 100s of apps that will produces soo much heat on usage and I have to carry around like it's a new born(very fragile). Plus I need to carry about a backup battery for a single days use. I realise that now 1 device is doing the work of 5-8 devices. But in this "economy of choice", I just want a mobile I can make calls from, will last at least 3 days on a single charge and I can just throw it on the ground.
