Mobile Home Phone - Nokia 2190
In 1998 I was working for the good folk at CCRW.
The organization had no office space for me at the time... so they sent me hone.
I needed a phone line for net access (this was prior to wide spread DSL availability or Cable internet services) and I also needed to be on the phone a lot.
Bell sold me a second line for my Gore Vale apartment. The repair/install dude arrived and informed me that it would take weeks (and a back-hoe) to bring a line in off Queen to my home. He suggested I look into a cell service.
I did some service/pricing comparisons and ended up signing on with Fido. I snagged the cheapest and most reliable phone they had... the Nokia 2190... aka "The Brick".
CCRW paid for the service while I was WFH and turned the plan (and #) over to me once we moved into new offices.
I'm still with Fido... and I still have that same #.
