Hi Thomas.
Great phone. So I am curious, do you know if this actually was the very first bag phone model made by Motorola ?
I see it uses the Dynatac 2000X handset.
I thought that the America Series 820 bag phone was the first model, but could be wrong now.
The 820 phones uses a different style of handset too, but still has the same LED display.
These type of very early bag phones are very hard to find now.
Cheers, Chris.

Hi Chris ,

Many Thanks! Yes, this mobile phone must have been one of the first. I found it on Ebay.com and this was the first time ever that I 've seen a bag phone from Modar Communications Inc. 8-)

The complete story of the bag phones I unfortunately do not know, as Motorola unfortunately does not offer complete list of mobile phones produced by them .

I believe that the first bag phones have come in 1990 to the market.

Cheers
Thomas

Definitely one of my favorite bag phones. Love the warm yellowish glow that the keypad backlight has.
