Angry 1998 Mercedes

I posted accidentally onto another thread as a reply and figured that I better start a new one.

I was hoping someone could assist me since I do not own a mercedes nor do I know anything about them, but my client owns a 1998 and had one of them analog telephones from mercedes put in as optional equipment. From what she states, it still is in working condition, however, I cannot find a service provider.

Can anyone recommend service for the West Palm Beach, FL area? We use to have AT&T Wireless but they do not provide analog service anymore.

Can I even get service or are we looking at having to replace the phone system completely?

Thank You!

It would be better off upgrading to a digital phone. I don't think Cingular has national analog anymore or any analog plan alone. Even if they did, and if she travels all over, her bill would be very high with all the roaming charges.

Tell whatever provider that you have a xyz model Motorola or nokia.......they can't tell the difference and you get superior range of analog phone with the digital price plan......be sure you know that the xyz model is digital.....
