I hope for something like the Motorola D lineup. You could take out the original battery and replace it for 4xAA batteries. That’s pretty cool.
A few months ago I was quite happy to finally win one functional handset, Motorola D170, in auction for just around €7 incl. shipping. Unfortunately, I always bring bad luck. The seller unexpectedly ended up in hospital and I got a refund.
The D170 even has a flip-out keypad cover which makes it even cooler. And all of these have extendable antennas.

Otherwise the most available seems to be D520, but almost all of them are corroded and non-functional because people left batteries in them.
That rubber keyboard was awful though
