It's sitting in the glove compartment of my car in case I break down. I only need to charge it up twice a year. I bring it with me when paragliding or travelling. It has been the only phone I've ever actually owned, even though I've bought two smart phones since then for my husband.
Does it actually work? The sim voltages have changed...It should be non complaint?
Well I can send text messages. I don't actually use phones as actual phones. Although I tried today and couldn't hear anything but there was a lot of traffic, I was walking and trying to keep it away from my head. I brought a new pay as you go sim card a few months ago when I got the thing back from Germany to keep in the car. I should probably test the phone somewhere quiet.
OK just checked. It does send and receive voice but my husband was extremely quiet although he could hear me properly. Also the first time I tried the phone switched itself off. Oh well. I only use it for text messages anyway.
