This reminds me of something I read about a year or two ago, some bright spark came up with the disposable mobile.

In essence it was a small cardboard strip attached to an integrated circuit and an arial. It didn't even have a display, just a battery, a rubber keypad and a slot for the sim card. He designed it as a sort of throwaway phone for people on holiday.

Don't know if he made any though.

Hold the phone (ha ha), I've found this.

Trouble is it doesn't seem to recive calls (not always a bad thing) and I've never seen on on the market.
