Anyone interested in adopting my old brickphone?  I'll ship it for cost
of postage.  If no takers I'll send it to the Goodwill Computer Store,
which will undoubtedly sell it for scrap.

The in-dash communications device, support for which was (apparently)
discontinued.  My dealer yanked mine when I griped about the constant
error message about "no functionality".  The cubby is much more useful.

I bought the car used at private sale, for a good bit less than current
market value - so some other dumb fool paid for that phone, not me.
Hell, the dealer removed the thing, replaced it with a much more useful
in-dash cubby, and updated my firmware - all at no cost to me, since the
phone service has been discontinued and I bitched about the constant
error message on my dash display.

It makes an excellent doorstop but is useless otherwise.  Comes in a
decorator Volvo pasteboard box!
