Help! I tried using phonescoop.com's phone finder and it didn't really help me out. Here's a list of things I'm looking for:

things I need -

-GSM - 1900 band (on T-Mobile)
-good reception - I'm in an area that doesn't get that great reception in a lot of places and I don't need the phone to add to the problems
-a nice color screen - the bigger/more lines the better, but I don't want a massively huge phone.
-alarm clock features
-non-slow UI
-not too expensive (preferably under $75-100 used or new on ebay)

things that I don't need but would be nice -

-bluetooth
-a camera/video camera, but only if it produces something other than unrecognizable blobs
-a flashlight
-a radio
-ability to use downloadable apps or mp3 ringtones

things I do not want because they just increase the price and I never use them -

-any kind of internet or data access
-memory card etc.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Most if not all phones come with some sort of internet connectivity.

Your price range has really limited you. I can't even think of a phone that will suit you. Maybe a Nokia 3595?

Well, I don't NEED any of the things in the "want" section and none of the things that I really need are too expensive as far as I'm aware.

If the phone has to come with data, that's ok but it seems like in a lot of phones it's the primary feature and what contributes the most to the cost. Since I don't use data at all, I'd rather do without out it and the extra cost it brings.
