That might be true Roman, but unfortunately Siemens good design did
not extend to their record keeping for those years... it seems that
Siemens like mayn other companies during that period (if not ALL
companies) didn't archive anything about this - the probably dumped
all this stuff and equipment into the trash bin just like Harris did
just before they sold their division to Fluke...

I contact Harris/Fluke and Siemens about their older prodeucts
directly and were able to speak or be in direct contact with a
representative... The Siemens rep basically say the name has no
bearing on the product and any ways they did not have any
documentation of this MP2k based phone.. neither did they have
anything on the NotePhone based on an OMP...

Harris dumped all their old documentation about 6 months prior to me
contacting them and that was after they sold their division to
Fluke... but I was however able to contact an senior technical rep
who was still there after the Fluke buyout and he gave me some verbal
confirmation that ALL of it was dumped from their storage facilities
after the buyout... He also said he has one copy of documentation with
had written notes and documentation on the Harris SuperTech 2000 but I
was unable to get him to copy it for me :( I think he decided not to
since it was still company documentation and private :(

Well looking at the picts I guess that it could record voice messages
(there is a ICON there along the top above the second '2' which looks
alot like the currrent day voicemeil icon on my Nokia cellular phone
and to the right of that there is a Bar Indicator which reads 22% frei
which I could guess to mean there is 22% Free recording storage spage
left... huh?!) and if we had some documentation I'm sure it would of
been possible to record a message or conversation while you were
talking...

A blind guess. - Though this is actually old news....
