Recommend a non-smartphone?

Smartphones give me the creeps. My wife has a Nexus One and neither of us can stand it. She had an iPhone previously. I have an SE W810i which is great and my wife is envious of its simplicity. I switched to an N82 for awhile but the software is too clunky, although it has a great camera.

Is my SE W810i the pinnacle of non-smartphonage? We want something with simple software, a good camera, unlocked, USB, GSM, and 3G. The W810i has all of this except its camera could be better (especially video) and it has no 3G. Does something like this exist?

If you're curious why smartphones give me the creeps, they are just trying to do too much IMO and the basic functions suffer. I want a phone, camera, and modem for tethering, not a lifestyle piece.
 
Try looking at the SE W995. It's one of the best phones SE has ever released and I know a lot of other members here will agree. It's simple, great built, great camera and battery life too. Not to mention the music quality since it's a walkman phone
 
I was very pleasantly surprised by the SE T715a that I got just to use up my FidoDollars. If I didn't put such a high value on using Google Maps with a fast touchscreen, I probably would have abandoned smartphones altogether.
