I couldn't Google up anything in the way of a print for the phone, and I
figured I'd go nuts trying to reverse engineer it and then obtain the
components it needed, so I just pulled the SIM card out of it, chucked
the phone in the trash, and bought the kid a rugged, non-flip, internal
antenna ex-Cingular Nokia complete with wall and car chargers for $30 on
eBay.

Stuck the SIM card into it, made a quick phone call to Conversent so
they could plug the phone's ID numbers into their computer, and he was
on the air again. He can bloody well live with a plebian phone until
he's on his own - Ha!

having sex.)
