Need to get into digital (still keeping my analog service as a backup)
and want something larger and more robust than the tiny phones everybody
offers. Guess I'm spoiled with my 10 year old Motorla flip phone.
Any advice for a GSM (Cingular system) Motorola phone that's easy to use
key-wise, basic features like voice mail, caller ID with missed calls...
would be appreciated. Need to dump my pager service, also, so I need a
phone that can tell you from a distance you missed a call or have voice
mail. Maybe I'm asking too much??
I've been told the Motorola Timeport P7389 was a very nice phone with
great clarity and signal strength. Any comments? Does it give you missed
calls with caller ID... as I've heard conflicting news on this?
Thanks for the help on this.

Erm, 5 years ago - perhaps. But the world has moved on, even US mobile
telecoms.
Don't touch it with an insulated barge pole. You can get much better in
these modern times.

There are more modern phones which perform as well, and which are better
supported with replacement batteries and other accessories. Further, two
of the 3 GSM carriers use the 850 MHz band, something that didn't exist
when the P7389 was designed. I'd forget it and go for a newer model.
