Can you find my friend a phone?

Friend is having trouble finding a phone that increases the size of text by touch. She likes the HTC Desire and can get that on her contract but will lose the good deal she gets if she accepts the upgrade which is 2 phones with well over £200 worth of freebies each month.

Can anyone point me in the direction of an android touch phone that has the ability to enlarge text and is no more than £100.

No qwerty phones as she doesn't like them.

Thank you!

I would go for a used samsung galaxy s - they are about £100 refurbished and work incredible well with android 2.3. I just got one for free and gave away my orange san francisco.

Thanks c4rv and grahamzxy.

The San Francisco is an Orange own phone isn't it? My friend's with T-Mobile and wants to stay with them as she gets brilliant deals for her and her hubby.

I didn't think of an app.

Great, thanks again.

The San Francisco is a ZTE Blade re-branded by Orange. You may be able to get your hands on a Blade.
