nope, its analogue and all the analogue networks in the UK were switched off in 2001, i'll wire it up so it lights up, if i can be bothered i might modify it so it works via bluetooth with a normal phone, maybe.

The company I worked for in the early to mid '90's had Motorolas and Panasonics for carphones. Always preferred the Panasonics, but what a score!!!  |

I used to have one of those. I wired it up so it works as a handset with my old phone.

Thats excellent! If it wasn't in China and I'm so sceptical I'd be tempted. Could just imagine plonking that on my desk at work. |
