You've got to love the brick phone. I had one in the early days on the analogue network. To be honest, it was the best phone I ever had. Never dropped out and worked almost anywhere.

Crickey things have changed since then!

Oh my god could they have not made it more cheeeeesey. Really, that was an add for a cell phone? HOW? WHERE? All I saw was a fork in the road and the guy using his car phone to call his wife. Wowwwww and that was in the days when "CALL FOR ACTION" was obviously lost to them hahaah

great video, Its remembers the analog device I used before.
