What mobile for my dad to get?

My dad is soon to be going to the USA doing a railway tour.

He needs a mobile that will work in America (quad band), as the mobile he currently has is one of my old phones (Siemens C55)

He's been looking online and liked the look of the Moto V3.
I personally don't like it.

The sony Ericsson are no good as he doesn't play much music (very rare 1cd a year perhaps).

this is what he wants:
Price - under £80 (budget price as he's retired)
Ease of use.
Ability to use a sim of a USA network (not network locked)
Quad band.

He basically wants to just talk and text. no data is needed.

no contract either.

Can we have some suggestions for likely mobiles please :)
 
Hmmm that's a difficult budget price for a "new" sim-free phone, personally I'd be searching eBay because you're bound to find a better deal on something with such limited short-term use requirements. Not sure what to recommend though but I wouldn't exclude a phone just because it can play music, it's still a phone.

Sony Ericsson's are pretty good too, though the UI can be a little annoying on them.

Also, not sure if this site is any good but I found it with a Google search:
