I don't know what happened to that technology. it always worked.


Over here in OC & LA I don't think anyone put it in their back pocket they held it to show that they had a phone and you didn't.

My friend had to keep an extra battery with her at all times. We were 19 driving all around OC, Hollyweird, and LA so it was good we had a phone.

What ever did happen to Nextel?
