bag phone
motorola bag phone
Anyone else see this thing on internal site??
What is the deal with this, is this just to replace any existing analog bag phones floating around? I also wonder how mauch juice this thing is going to crank out or if it going to be the same specs as current phones instead of the old bag phones?

What's the model on it?
If it's the M800, Alltel already picked it up. I dug around looking for specs, and it has 0.6 watts of power for analog reception and 0.325 watts of power for digital reception. It's a phone that you can carry around in a bag. Not worth it.

It is the M800. Be careful when you sell this thing because the reception is not as good as the older bag phones. If you're selling it as a replacement, be sure to get an amplifier to go along with it. Otherwise you'll get some angry customers coming back saying it's not a good replacement.

Verizon still sells or replaces bag phones??????
I think Im going to bring my grandmothers eight track and turntable to a verizon store. They might buy it from me. Or even better. They might replace it AND give me cash back!!!
Oh Verizon! Why is it so hard for you to let go the past, and say hello to NOW and the future???

Believe it or not, there's still a market for these. I live out in the boonies, and I hear "I wish I still had my old bag phone" at least twice a week.

Forget your grandmother's 8-track and turntable... just bring in your grandmother. My grandad will take care of her... AND give you cash back!!! 😁

Does it have a release date for this? We get a lot of questions about this, because Alltel sells it. I'm not a huge fan of it, but it might actually be a good seller....
...
Why is VZW releasing an analog phone? Isn't analog being stopped soon next year anyway?
...
Its not analog. Its actually a tri mode so technically has analog. My guess is its just for the bag phone people that don't want to give those up.
...
...but it has much less reception power as a regular bag phone. Those people are better off just getting a phone with an antenna jack with a 3 watt booster.
...
i wonder how long it would take to develop a brain tumor using this bad boy....wow!
...
It uses the same reception power as a normal phone. It's no greater risk than say...a VX5300.
...
No one mentioned that its $400 😳
and yes, it is only for people who have analog and don't want to change, even though its trimode and not powered by a 3 watt booster. I can't, for the life of me, think why someone would buy this.
But it comes with a CLA and a case (read:suitcase), so there goes my ATR

it may not be 3 watts but it does say it has 4 times the coverage as regular handhelds!
...
Correction:
It says it transmits more then 3x the distance then other cdma phones.

The 3 watt booster is an extra $300. Don't forget the phone is a shoulder breaking 10 lbs!!!
