I saw somewhere someone had taken old phones, desk and mobile and put cell
phone guts in them with a pic processor to decode the rotary dial and was
selling them. On the outside they looked like the real thing!

What I recall about these mobile telephones (at least in NJ when I lived there)
was that they didn't put quarter-wave VHF whips on roof or trunk but used a
genuine coaxial dipole on about a 2 foot long mast installed on a fender. I
guess they felt that a better way.

This is from another list. It is an interesting trip down memory lane
about the evolution of the mobile telephone.
