   Simplest phone to replace Nokia 6340?

   I've been notified by my carrier (AT&T) that older 2G GSM cell phones   
   will stop working by the end of the year due to "upgrades" on their   
   wireless system. I still use an old (ancient?) Nokia 6340 which suits   
   my needs perfectly.  I don't need or want internet access, texting,   
   or a camera - just a phone to make and receive calls.   
      
   Unfortunately it looks like AT&T does not offer any simple phones, just   
   smart phones that I don't want. I have not looked at cell phones in a   
   very long time. What would be something very basic but newer that will   
   work with AT&T's coming network changes? (I am not averse to picking up   
   an unlocked used phone on ebay or wherever rather than new.)
