Actually it does require peripherals - Cell Sites, otherwise it is not much
more than a paper weight.

Please respond to

No, not at all like cell phones. Cell phones are an entirely different
matter. A cell phone is a single, discreet appliance that someone can
learn
to use very quickly. It does not require peripherals, and in many cases,
is
the least expensive way to have a phone - cheaper than land lines in many
cases. It also has a long life cycle. It is entirely reasonable to expect
to wear out a cell phone before it becomes obsolete to the point of
impracticality.
