Title: Commodore DECT Phone on ebay!?
Post by: amigean on October 06, 2004, 08:59:57 PM

Did Commodore also make cordless phones? Or is this a case of pirate rebadging?

well at least it's not accompanied by the word 'rare'! :)

Can´t say for sure, but they are probably not original Commodore items, more likely one of the owners of the Commodore name ( Tulip? ) have used it on their phones in order to bring a known name, and perhaps by that sell more units?

But thats just my $2M.. :-)

Tulip owns the Commodore trademarks now, and they're licensing them to everybody who's interested (and wealthy enough).

I've seen Commodore file shredders a few years ago...

allright, this makes better sense now.
