    Bag Phones

    Anyone have any use for bag phones anymore? Found 2 in a drawer I was cleaning out.

    I have three of them and they work great! One is a Fox that is digital - even tho cell providers claim otherwise.

    The analog bag phones are the heat for clarity and reception range....but I don' think that there's any analog cell service providers any more. If there are, the charges would be more than 10X that of a typical digital service..... perhaps you could donate them to the Smithsonian...

    Just Lucky to have One!
    Make a good halloween prop for costume. "OR" Go to your local cell phone store, make sure you get some 17 year old kid, and tell them you need a car charger for it. If they give you any crap tell them its a designer model that just came out and complain that the store should keep up to date on new products! He will probable ask his manager for help "who is 18" and lord knows where it will go from there! Let me know how it plays out!

    Sounds like its time for the trash dump! I guess I never should have let the service expire on them years ago.
