phazey Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Good Lord - Is that network still going?? I remember working with the installation engineers back in '98/'99 as they couldn't figure how to get data working. Myanmar needs more basket phones!

DagonKhan Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 I returned mine a couple of years ago having had it since 1997. Only ever used it for incoming calls (US$ phone) and had to put up an external antenna in order for it to work. I briefly had a handset for it until MPT announced that they would hunt people down who 'moved' their CDMA phone. The funniest part was when I returned it, they insisted on receiving all parts of the phone including the original battery pack/charger that I had replaced some years prior. Luckily I had it or they were going to charge me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
