LOL, funny you should ask. I just got done responding to this post from a girl who is giving up her iPhone for a phone with buttons...

But to answer your question, cell phone's aren't just for young people anymore. Older people still tend to prefer the flip phones with large buttons because they have trouble seeing and some people believe their fingers are too large to use a phone with touch screen capabilities. Some people like the post above prefer buttons over a touch screen because that's what they're used to.
