Post #247,183 by Another Scott 3/8/06 7:36:00 AM Reply	That's not a mobile phone. 18kB .img That's a ... something - something out of the late 1990s. I was in Japan around 2000. School girls there had these amazing phones. They were several styles of them, the smallest were about the size of a MontBlanc pen. (Of course, I can't find a picture of them now.) They were tiny. I have no idea what the battery life was like, nor how they were actually used, but that's my idea of a mobile phone - something unobtrusive that you talk into and listen to. Not some giant honking $600 thing that tries to be a miniature 1985-ish PC. No, they weren't Zoolander phones...

If they had a display, it was very small. They may have been analog-only phones and that may explain the small size. I dunno. Cheers, Scott.
