Re: "So I bought a dumb phone again. it's been maybe 8 or more..."
@kebokyo pimoroni just released a 4G modem for the serial port.

It is not fast, 10/5Mbit max and a serial bps of 115200 at least. It's made for iot but I see that it is made for gemini etc.

So I bought a dumb phone again. it's been maybe 8 or more years since I downgraded for a time. I wanted something that wasn't super inconvenient but wasn't a low end smart phone. one could argue the one I picked is basically that, but I see it differently - there's no app store. The phone is also a "high end" dumb phone, so it costs a bit more than the cheapies. considering how much smart phones cost, I think it's a good trade off to detox for a bit. I got the Sunbeam F1 Horizon Bluebird....
