Hi, I'm in need of a bit of help from you guys. I want a new phone but am having a lot of problems finding one with large fonts. I'm registered partially sighted and so far most of the phone shops i've been in have been dreadfull with helping me out :(

I currently have a Nokia 3230 which i've been able to change the font size on because it's a symbian 60 phone which is fantastic but the size/weight and slowness of the phone is really starting to bug me. Ideally i'd love a flip phone but a normal candybar shape one or a sliding will be fine if it's small and light.

Since last August i've had the following phones to give you an idea of what I like and don't like:

6230 - Loved this phone so i'm considering the 6230i but feel it's now a little dated.
K750i - This is the last Sony Ericsson i'll ever consider, loved the camera but hated the rest of the phone. Messaging font was definately too small for me needless to say I only had this for about 2 weeks before selling it.
D500 - Excellent phone but the camera was dreadful and once I got one every man, his dog and his entire family had one. I also didn't like the fact you couldn't set the font to large as default.
E720 - Bought one of these cheap from o2 to try but the font was far too small and I couldn't even see it with my glasses so quickly got rid of this!

Money isn't really an issue for the right phone. If there is anything coming out in the near future I don't mind waiting for it as my contract is finished in July.

Any help you can give me will be really appreciated.

If (like me) you loved the 6230, and dont want a 6230i then have a look at the 8800, nice phone and not that common either but the camera does suck. The 6233 should also be out soon, small size, look slightly similar to the 6230/i, same user interface and has a nice 2megapixel camera
