I wanted a new cellphone last year and ended up having to get something prepaid from Tracfone (it cost me all of $20).
It was nearly impossible to get something that didn't have a camera or video or ringtone downloads or realtime internet or a zillion other features that I didn't need and didn't want from any of the major cellphone providers.
Imagine an elderly person who only wants to get a simple phone call being forced to deal with a couple dozen complicated options (not to mention having to pay for all that stuff).
