Looking for a few things:

 

 

 

  • Cisco Catalyst Wifi 6 accesspoints, any model. Ones that can operate with whatever the Cat9100 version of Mobility Express is would be prefered
  • Old Nokia Symbian devices, N86, N95 preferred. Any Nseries or Eseries device gladly accepted.
  • Old Windows Mobile devices with keyboard, Palm Trios, HTC P4300, Motorola Q, etc.

In the Te Aro area

I have a Nokia 6510 - pretty old school was going to try chucking it on eBay - PM me if you want.

We're specifically looking for Symbian-based phones, as they can have a screenreader installed on them. That one unfortunately is a bit too old.

I have a Nokia 710 you can have. Is that going to meet your needs?

Unfortunately not. Windows Phone 7 never had a screenreader either...

I have an E52 that used to work last time I turned it on a year or two ago. But right now, it does not appear to be turning on or charging. Could be the battery or something else. You can have it if you'd like to troubleshoot?

Hrmmm. Not sure how to troubleshoot those when they just won't power on, will it power on with charger and no battery? Sanity check, charger is ok?

@ThatPrettyFreya Multiple known working chargers, no luck yet, with or without battery. Will leave it connected for a while just in case it decides to come back to life.

Appreciate it. Those phones tend to be the kind that if they ain't turning on, they ain't turning on.
