Hello

I have an old Motorola m3788e mobile phone which I understand can be
adapted for use with standard AA size batteries. I also understand
this involves fitting a special battery cover which increases the
battery holder size to accept the AAs instead of the manufacturers
smaller recharable battery pack.

Would anyone out there have one of these covers they would want to
sell me or could anyone direct me to a website where one could be
purchased.

regards

DC

Simply hold the existing back on with a couple of elastic bands,
the genuine AA back costs more than the phones worth

Virgin used to sell them for 20quid
