The Anti-Smartphone: Will The “Light” Phone Actually Be A Thing?

The company is calling it the “Light” phone.  But am I too far off in calling the antithesis of a smart phone….the “dumb” phone?  To me, texting has changed how we communicate on the go.  So I’m not sold that a “phone-only” option is going to be the answer.  But maybe you think a smart device is too tempting and would be interested in having a secondary device.  What do you think?
