- I'd like to purchase a portable phone -- one that I can take with me
- and use in the car, but don't know anything about them. Is there
- somewhere I can look for info? Or, would some kind soul like to tell
- me what I should know?
-
- The phone will mostly be used in the New York City area (in the city
- and in the suburbs), if that makes any difference.
-
- Many thanks!

- [Moderator's Note: You might want to get the back issues of the Digest
- from the Telecom Archives (anonymous ftp lcs.mit.edu) and read over
- the numerous discussions we have had on this in the past. It is really
- an applications problem: how do you intend to use the phone, how
- often, etc. There are far too many deals in the market place at any
- given time to cover them all here. PAT]
