The dumbphones are ok, but not great. Mostly living off the brand. My 
feeling is that they were much better in the 90s. In my more recent 
experience the buttons give up after 2-3 years.

Their smartphones I don't know anything about, so maybe those are better.

Sadly that doesn't work in europe, or I never managed to get it to work on 
my computer. =( Bolt (European Uber clone) also say that you can use a web 
interface, but it also never works.

Strangely enough, in eastern europe, there is a local taxi company that 
have a website that actually works and they do give you a fixed price. I 
wish they would expand to the rest of europe. ;)
