Bubbles - The octane is a bit of a chunky phone.

+100.
So much better than having a dumbphone.
I mean how many dumphones can calculate all of the zmanim for any place you may find yourself? Heck my Android still doesn't have 1/100th of the Jewish apps my Palm had.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Let me  explain. Overall it's a good phone. Just it is a big piece, and also it has a sucky browser, and is not able to download any apps to it like opera mini. A few other things I don't like... But overall it's not bad he you want just voice and sms.

Bubbles - I guess you must see it personally to decide on the size.

What is the current best Verizon non smartphone to get?
Samsung Brightside? Lg Cosmos? Something else?

Also, will any of the non-smartphones, store more than 25 calls in the 'recent calls' section?

the 'best verizon non-smartphone'- so what is it that you're looking for in a phone? 'best' is very subjective.

Yup. Verizon works with a cutoff date I forget what it was but anything "smart" after that is a smartphone.
