I use a Motorola DynaTAC 8000X. It's a little heavier than some of the newer phones, but it works great.

Wow! The Motorola "brick", affectionately named because you could talk on it, pound nails with it, what have you ... That looks like the 2nd and slimmer brick. I had both the first thicker one, and the one in your pic. Great phones!

That was in the days when few had cell phones, and so you could use them on flights. I found by experimenting, that as I was coming into a metro area, they would start working as the plane descended, about the time we hit 10,000 ft and below ...

They work great for you because you have 3 watts of power as opposed to what, about 1/2 watt with todays pocket warmers?
