If it doesn't have a sim card in it, it won't be connecting to any cellular networks. If you don't want it connecting to wifi then either turn off wifi or go into airplane mode. I'm not not sure how easy it is to find a smart phone with a removable battery though.

I'm<br> using the Smart Audio Book Player since that's mostly what I listen to. <br> The same programmer also publishes Smart Music Player. VLC media player<br> is also good.<br> <br> The Smart player doesn't have near the features of RB but it has the<br> essentials - album/file oriented, good bookmarking system. <br> Auto-resume. If one turns this feature on in config, it'll pick up<br> where it left off when something is plugged into the headphone jack. It<br> has the option to go back and replay a specified number of seconds if<br> the phone is turned off. The number of seconds can be specified as a<br> constant or a max. When set to max, the replay interval increases the<br> longer the phone is off.<br> <br> The S7/Smart player combo sounds very good. The ear speakers are by<br> Etymotic (about $300). I bought them about 30 years ago and today<br> they're as good as new. I'm not sure they're still in business since my<br> email bounced but the site is up and running fine.
