bart, there will always be people selling something because they need money. Vein wanted to sell his collection since a long time (I guess almost 2 years) because he just wasn't much interested in it.

And to be honest: Of course I love my collection but it's not more than a little luxury. Truely, my collection is the only thing I own, that is good for nothing. It's just nice to watch them.

So stay cool. Times are not worse, some people just think worse. And not to everyone a collection has the same value.

Wow! Haven't been here for a loooooooong time.

I'm never selling any of my Ericsson phones, actually have got rid of three SE phones but not a single Ericsson. In fact, the last couple of days I have been using my favourite cellphone of all times- the R320s. I can't remember how many times people actually asked where, when and how long kind of questions.

The one thing I enjoyed was/is the strong vibrate of the phone, I never missed a call even when I had it on vibrate only. I also forgot how you could go for more hours on a low battery than current phones, truly a joy to use.

The one amazing thing though is that I still use the original battery after eight years- the BSL-11. I actually had reservations about the battery three years ago that I bought a generic one just in case, but it is still going strong.

Unfortunately I can't find batteries for my GH688, got 3 for the R600 though.

I wish I had a magic wand and wave so as to bring Ericsson (by itself) back. Those were the days.

@Zsolthy:

Don't worry, most of your listed bugs are wellknown or are not even bugs (i.e. the T36 does not support GPRS). Regarding the freezing problem: If you have an old 5V simcard, try this one. The T36 proto firmware just doesn't like modern 3V simcards, as I found.

Uncommon problems at your T36 are:
- no backlight (should work with any known firmware)
- no flip functions
- no possibility to change menu text size
- no possibility to change time and date

These functions did work on the 4 T36 I have held in my hands so far but all T36 have had problems by editing and saving some menu functions so I guess it's all a problem of not being able to save a changed function properly.

However, your unit does look very good and the price is more than a bargain. The average price is around 300 euro.

And by the way: e-zones has been relaunched now. There are several improvements so just try it out. Also, I added some groups.

Hello to everyone,

A new seconhand phone shop opened these days near Zürich, Switzerland. I passed there and did not know about it. I was lucky to find these 2 fones in good condition, does anybody know some details about them? NH238 / LX677 (for more photos go to:www.picasaweb.google.ch/bucheral01
then go to the update folder)

Thanks Alex

@bucheral:
though the phone's condition look very good I hope you didn't pay much: Especially in the past year I have found several brand new LX677 at ebay USA for 1 dollar plus shipping. Average shipping costs are 20 USD so the total costs are still pretty cheap.

@Zsolthy:
The NMT450 is still in use on Iceland. But I guess bucheral wouldn't travel such a distance to check if his phone is fully operational
