It’s not as simple as taking Honda and gut it and than build to the likes
of the US consumer, when it comes to wireless cell phone technology. There
is customer facing technology which is handsets and cell phone hardware,
which need to communicate with the backend network service provider’s
networks like Cingular or others, to complete the call within cities,
towns, states, nation and international. Now simple cell phones did exist
in years 1997/8/9, 2000 but as time proceeded, so did backend network’s
technology. Today Cingular is on GSM technology which is used worldwide.
So the hand sets has also changed with built in modifiable data chip and
complicated bells and whistles.

I think what should be done is take 1997/8/9, 2000 handset technology and
modify to work with GSM technology and market it. Why to reinvent the
wheel, when simple ease of use technology already was invented before and
thrown away to make room for bells and whistles technology? Just modify it
to work with GSM networks. Nokia, Motorola, Qualcom and many other small
cell hardware designers and manufacturer already have this earlier design
blueprints.

Only thing is, small fish would need investments and support from network
services providers and motivation to bring back innovative/creative spirit
that was the flagship during late 70’s, 80’s and 90’s. If a network
service provider blesses this project, FCC should not be the problem, they
are all imbedded.
