"helpful Cell Phone Info. During Bad Weather"
I just would like to extend a Happy New Year to all of my Aero brothers and sisters out there. I recently recieved this helpful info. in an e-mail at work. If it's good enough for us Air Force folks its certainly good enough for my extended family as well. Again, stay safe, stay smart, and above all else "KEEP OUR AEROSTAR'S AT THE FRONT OF THE PACK!"

It does not work with Nokia phones, with Motorolla and Ericsson only.

Most auto alarm remotes use an RF transmitter; I don't know of any cell phones that will repeat or tunnel those signals.
I don't think most cell phones have a reserve battery. At best, there is a keep-alive battery for the clock, but even those go out if you really run down the main battery. The *3370# function on my Nokia sets the default voice codec.
About the only thing from this list that works on my Nokia is the serial number printout.
