(bad pics teken with Nokia 6275 as I cannot find real camera's charger! I'm buying a camera that takes regular AA's next time)
SEE! it's just massive.

Wells it's just TOO portable.
This beast would give you a very sore arm rather quickly.

Not big enough huh?
If there was one phone that makes any phone look "ultra sleek" then this is it.

it's not the "brick" it's the original PAVING SLAB!
Circuitry is fully discreet! it was "fully transitorized" as most systems back then were still valve based.
This sucker is built like the Apollo 11 stuff, It's all shock mounted, through-hole eyelet and double redundancy PCB. The foam and casing has deteriorated over time but the internals look brand new.
This beast is Pre-cellular, but it was the first system to support direct dialling and full duplex operation just like a "real" telephone. Motorola have a sole old yellowed stock picture of one on their website but I'm wondering if there are any other actual devices around anywhere?
