You mean you want to spy on someone ? :-)

no i want to have a mobile phone that is small. not to spy, easiest way to describe what im searching for would be to describe it as a prison phone. (a phone small enough to carry on board so to speak until in your cell) which it would not be used for i can assure you

I had one of these way back in 2000(ish) and it was one of the first candy/flip phones to be able connect to WAP and be edit business docs, in theory. An early example of the direction that would smartphones follow. One hell of an great phone IMO and not much bigger then a box if matches, which would be very easy for your jail bird mate to stash ;)

Here's on I found on ebay

Googling for "smallest phone" gets some interesting results. The modu looks like the smallest (not smaller than a matchbox though) and is available locally. Alternatively, maybe one of those watch-phones?

The world's smallest commercial mobile phone is supposedly modu. See:

The Neonode N2 (my previous phone before the N900) is a tiny bit bigger, but it has been discontinued:

It's somewhat bigger, but the Nokia 1100 is pretty nice - excellent battery life, cheap, and indestructable.
