Brian get your wife one of these, its a iPhone Clone made by Cect a China Manufacture. They are called the SciPhone or HiPhone, all from Hong Kong and china.
There's the real copy of the iPhone and then there's the copy of the copy, it gets all very silly as with all the models of these clones. (i9, i9+, i9++, i9+++, i999, W999, W009, W995, W818, H168, PX168, C900......
These phones are dual sim (two sim cards can work at the same time) thats like having two phones in one.
The best of the bunch is the L007, it has DVB TV and analogue TV and has WIFI
most of the models have WIFI (simply excellent), these phones only cost £30 to £60.
