My recomendation is for the Sony I-mode. It's not colour, but to my mind it
has a more intuitive button layout, better screen, and it's thin and small
enough. I find it's right on that cutting edge, as someone here talked about
earlier, where a phone is so small it doesn't need to be any smaller because
there's no advantage in it.
If you want colour, I think that Kyocera makes a 209 model in colour that's
pretty small... I think I remember it being colour, but don't quote me
there.
