Holiday Gift Suggestion

Hey guys. I'm just hoping someone can help me out. My wife has been using a regular RAZR for about two years now. She's reached her upgrade period and I'm struggling to come up with a good replacement for her phone. I am kinda over thinking it. What I want in a phone and what she wants in a phone are two different things.

I would ask her, but she's not into phones and I kinda want this to be a surprise. So I'm hoping you guys can help me come up with a good option or two.

The things she likes/needs are:
Flip/Clamshell form factor
Speaker Phone
Easy/Intuitive UI
Obviously call quality

Data access is really not a concern for her and she minimally texts. Any quality handsets you guys could recommend would be appreciated.

Thanks. They don't offer the Gold any longer. I have been torn between either the Pink V3xx (i actually have the gray version) and the red Nokia 6555. Any opinion on which is the better phone for an average user?

I disagree, I have had an unbelievable amount of people who come back with those v3xx phones they purchased at other locations, and they all have problems with battery, screens, reception, etc. go with the nokia 6555, fantastic reception, batter could be better, camera is great, and its durable

I have used a Motorola V3xx for nearly a year and had no problems out of it. DonnyD311: You have a V3xx so you should know about it, but the 6555 is a great phone. The only issue I could see is the UI. If your wife is moderately techy, she should have no problem, but I have had several returned because non-techy people have a hard time getting used to the Symbian OS. If she is comfortable with the Motorola OS, I would suggest the V3xx.
