minimobileWhile cellphone companies cram as many features as possible in one tiny mobile phone, Vyas of the National Institute of Design gets rid of all the nifty features and came up with the Mini Mobile with just three buttons to receive and make calls. This no-frills phone doesn't have a display, so if you're an MMS or SMS nut, then you're not part of the target market. It's expected to be a hit for the elderly lot, as the more advanced handsets remain a mystery to seniors.

The Mini Mobile has no SIM card so it has to be networked to a main mobile phone, which according to Vyas prevents misuse in case of theft. If we are to believe that 80% of mobile users use only 20% of the features, then  this Mini Mobile might just catch on.
