Cellular Phone Forum / General / General Topics / August 2004FOUND: cellphone from "Something's Gotta Give"
The phone that Jack Nicholson used in "Something's Gotta Give" is a Nokia 8910, a GSM phone made for use outside the USA, but which probably works AOK here too. Awsome! Car Kit is awsome too! See all about it at http://www.nokia.com/nokia/0,,143,00.html My thanks to Mr. SDD, a reader of this newsgroup, who sent me this info!

SignatureNelson B Nokia 8910 will not work in North America, but if you like this design so much, you might want to get Nokia 8890, which will work here. It's been discontinued, but you can still buy a new or used one on the web. I used to have it, and it was really an awesome handset. The only reason I got rid of it was because it didn't have a WAP browser.
