Re: non-smart debian phone

Could you clarify what you're looking for?  I.e. is the presence of
a touch screen the problem, or is the absence of mechanical/physical keys
the problem, or is the risk of being spied on via the device the problem
(... or something else)?

I say that because the market is such that it might be easier to take
a cheap "normal" smartphone and adapt it to your particular needs than
to get what you directly wish for.
[ E.g. if you're looking for a good&cheap MP3 player, a smartphone is
  most likely your best bet by a long shot.  ]

Which part matter most: the ability to tweak/configure it, or the
ethical aspect of it being truly Free, or the familiarity with Debian?
