The Hornet Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 I think my dad has one of those Analogue ones in the garage somewhere. It won't work as its analogue but its one of those ones where you carry the battery pack (which is the size of a small car battery) and the phone is attached via a curly lead I'm sure I saw it last summer when I was getting his BBQ out.. Does it need to a digital working one though ? Hornet PS. Just curious but why ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its for my old mum, weve had to put her in a home so as we can sell the house she loved to pay for this years racing She doesnt have a phone in her small damp box room and im not paying to put a line in until she finds a room she likes , so until then i need to get her a mobile but she doesnt do well with little fiddly buttons.

jot_ie Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 I had one somewhere, About the sam size as a brick if I remember, maybe a little thinner. Will have to go looking. An old analogue one with a bendy ariel. Will have a look over the next few days. May have been dumped in the cleanout last summer, so no promises.

Barry Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 For some reason I keep all my old phones! The oldest I have is a Dancall DC1 (see pic) Also have 2 of those Nokia 'banana' phones, a selection of Sony's and a couple of Samsungs! The battery alone on the Dancall is heavier than my current K700i!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Dude This is like deja vu mate - had the same thing with my mum a year ago... One useful tip - my mum could never come to terms with a mobile or any push button phone as her parkinsons had made her quite potty - a bit of green paint on the green phone (answer button) helped a lot - just painted it green all over and all she had to remember was press the green button - then she could answer and call (set my number as last dialed so it would always call me) If your mother is getting confused that may help.
