For whatever reason, I am obsessed with any sort of business-related technology - especially if it came from the '90s. For instance, I like PDAs, fax machines, etc. I tend to like business and office environments in general. As a kid, I made my own computer out of a box and also set up an office like my dad's - with a desk (Little Tikes table), pencils, pens, pencil sharpener, phone, etc. The legacy still lives on, as I now have a filing cabinet, two fax machines, a briefcase, and several neckties. Why I like business stuff? Who knows? Maybe it's the nostalgia from the days when my dad worked at a company where he did a lot of business stuff (undoubtedly, this all started by me copying him). Or maybe I just simply find business stuff cool. It just seems so modern, classy, etc.
Anyway, I've gotten a bit off topic with this. Anyway, not too long ago, I was looking through our filing cabinets and looked through the folder for my dad's old car phone, which he used in his three company cars. I had looked in the folder before but wasn't entirely sure what model it was. But recently, after looking through the documents more closely, I learned that it was apparently an Audiovox CTX-3100A. Sadly, I didn't get many results for it on Google. Although I don't have a particular obsession with this gadget, it goes along with the "high tech business gadgets" that I mentioned - although I realize nowadays, cell phones are commonplace and not that big of a deal. Still, it just seemed kind of classy and sophisticated talking on a car phone and having a nifty-looking spiral antenna sticking out from the back window of your car. I think I'm also interested in this phone because it was in use in my dad's Dodge Dynasty, and as I've said many times before, I love that car. I'm definitely glad to have found some literature on the phone.
