The displayless S-Series from iCare targets elderly, drivers, kids

There's a new phone on the street from iCare mobile, maker of the iCare Baby Bear, called the S-Series, and it's targeted at the elderly and at businesses with staff members on the run, such as drivers. There's no display, which iCare claims lessens complication and helps "avoid unsolicited messages," and the phone can send emergency messages to three people at once, so it seems like it might be a hit for handing to younger kids as well that just can't handle those crazy "complicated" displays. You can also communicate one way with the phone in case of an emergency and nobody is picking up.
