Of course, 5 minutes of internet reasearch showed that I was incorrect and old phones could dial 911. In fact, many old phones are donated to agencies that help battered women, they had the phones out so the women can dial 911 if the need arises.
Guess I need to take those old phones away from my 3yr old now.
Now it makes me wonder how long a fully charged turned off cell phone will last? 6mo before the battery dies, 12, 18?
Thanks

you couldve just dialed 911, phones go into emergency mode when u dial 911 and theres a specific ring u hear, that wouldve gave u your answer faster than a web search... a "fully charged turned off cell phone" would last forever, why would it lose power, its not like were talking out in the woods or somethin lol
