I just had the idea put in my head when I saw someone posting
an ad for a used cellular phone....  Ideally I think I would
like some sort of hand-held unit(not a 'bag' phone)
but I think they are on the more costly side...

In the alternative I would Like a good 'bag' phone....


If it works off of rechargaeble batteries even better I do not want
something I need to plub into my cigarette lighter.....
  

FINAL REQUEST
a portable 'bag' phone that uses rechargable batteries.... and is relatively cheap...

Remember that many stores advertise phone for under $100 (cheap ones) with a service agreement....

Methinks the cellular phone industry might be throwing itself on its
own sword, with this price war on phone units.  The resale price of the
phones themselves, once people have gotten tired of them and realized
how costly it is to actually _use_ one, will probably fall below the
discounted prices we're seeing for new units.

Then when it becomes impossible to compete with the price of used
phones, sales volume of new ones will drop, and a price war will ensue
among service providers to get people to use the units which are out
there.

Think this'll happen?

We have a decommisioned Iris 1200 computer for sale. It got hit by a
sprinkler accident in the lab: after being commercially cleaned and
decontaminated, we tried to get it reconnected with our other refurbished
and replaced computer systems via the old Ethernet connections. This failed,
and we don't have the time and expertise to rebuild the daemons any more
(the previous programmers no longer work here). So insurance gave us some
money for it and we invested it in a newer machine.

The CPU and beautiful color monitor work just fine. We weren't able to get
the mouse or Ethernet to work afterwards, but do not know if the Ethernet is
a hardware or host software problem. The serial connection and keyboard
controls work just fine. We also have the complete manual set and the SGI
source tapes for a BSD4.3 system.

If any one is interested in a fascinating historical graphics engine, please
contact me at (617) 573-3768 or at my email address and make us an offer.
I can also show you the machine during business hours or evenings.
