If you want to use one you have to approach the Cellular networks and ask them to install it and connect it directly to their network.
You may be able to pay them enough to let you use their space within your building.
So using old cell phones is out for the UK until OfCom does something about it, which I hear may be in the pipe line.
These things go for about �2000, this is based on an order of 100, and is probably not available through the Cellular network for this price.

picoCell/microCell/nanoCell Base stations are low powered GSM nodes designed for indoor or small area GSM coverage. Their transmission power is low enough to meet the legal restrictions of many countries.
Here are two examples;

Both of these Base Stations have an RJ-45 in order to do Ethernet on the back end; GSM in, IP out.
I wonder if anyone has experience interfacing one of these or a similar product with Asterisk?
I also wonder if Digium has any plans to supply PCI cards which provide similar functionality?
The prospect of recycling old cell phones for use as Asterisk extensions is extremely attractive.
Cellular phone ---GSM---> picoCell ---IP---> Asterisk
