Help! Motorola 3 Watt Handheld

I have recently heard from someone that in the past Motorola once made
3-Watt handset models... does aynone have information they can provide on
this such as model numbers I could research? I would very much appreciate
it!

Thanks!

Only true Portable, higher then .6 Watt handheld model was a Blaupunkt and
it was 1.2 watts. NOBODY ever made anything else in true commercial release
to the public.
In this business you learn to never say never, but I am damn sure I am on
this one. Of course everyone had 3 watt TRANSportables, but the Blaupunkt
was the most powerful true handheld I have ever seen and I have been around
a long time, too long.

That's is correct, the Blaupunkt at 1.2 watts was the most powerful analog
handheld ever released. I never got to see one or use one. But from what I
heard, it worked fairly well.

The original design DynaTac portable was 600mw / 3 W governed by the
received signal strength. Circa 1980-81. (The very early days of cellular
phones). Miserable battery life and bag phones, which moved the antenna
farther away from the body, quickly eliminated the original 3w ability).

And it was REALLY made by G.E. They released the same handset in a snow
white color case in contrast to the Black Blaupunkt. I sold both types as a
sub agent for Bellsouth (now Cingular). They were all running in circles
though when the OKI 900 popped on the scene! I sold one of the first sets
in Atlanta to a lawyer who had to have every toy that OKI made for it to and
4 batteries! CHA CHING!!!$$$$ $1200.00 gross sale in 1 afternoon!
