I had a procedure done in a hospital this morning and I had been in the building for about 30 minutes before we started, when one of the nurses advised me to remove the battery from my cell phone because as she put it, "otherwise the building will kill it".



Perhaps it was coincidence but I then looked at my phone and the battery state of charge was in the toilet. I know it sounds crazy, and I'm embarrassed to even ask, was this just bull**** or is there anything to this? Lenny

The phone is an old Razor with Cingular markings on it. A friend had this in his drawer for years and wasn't using it anymore. He gave it to me to replace my Razor that had hit the pavement one too many times. I used the old ATT Sim card in the Cingular phone. On boot it comes up with Cingular logos but works fine on the ATT network. The model number, (I think this is what you need to identify the phone) is: V3(G8/9/18/19). I don't know what all those number mean, perhaps you do. There are several more numbers. I can post them also if need be. Thanks, Lenny
