Those Startac's are older phones though. I remember that when I was with a previous partner, his first cell phone was one of those. That's more than 6 years ago.

A hand crank phone charge!? ;Dr -now that is cool! In case you don't know-the batteries you use on your camera even if not powerful enough to power the camera can be used in less demanding things like clocks. We have a global positioning sattelite that takes lost of batteries but doesn't use them all up.
