Cameraless Phone

I’m a government contractor in charge of EMSEC (Emission Security) for a local Air Force Base. I’m in the market for a new cell phone, but due to my job I can’t have a camera on my phone. Do you have any suggestions for a cell phone with Bluetooth. Something like the Treo would be nice for scheduling and other Palm capabilities. Thanks again. TechTV will live on in all our hearts.

Finding a new cell phone that doesn’t have a camera in it these days can be a bit tough, but there are a number of them out there. If you’re looking for one that has PDA-like capabilities that also has Bluetooth, you may want to take a look at the Blackberry 8800, which combines the user interface of the Blackberry Pearl with the size of the older Blackberry models…and skips the camera, which makes it safe at the Air Force base!
