Besides the mainstream Bag Phones that were targeted for the North American market, Motorola also produced Bag Phones that run on the GSM 900 network under the International Series brand name. These phones, targeted mostly for the European market, are largely the same as their AMPS/TDMA counterparts, except the handset is slightly different in form and uses a black and white dot-matrix LCD display. These phones have not quite reached the end of their service life, as the GSM 900 network is still active in many parts of the world, most notably Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Oceania, and most of Asia.

Famous quotes containing the word series:
“If the technology cannot shoulder the entire burden of strategic change, it nevertheless can set into motion a series of dynamics that present an important challenge to imperative control and the industrial division of labor. The more blurred the distinction between what workers know and what managers know, the more fragile and pointless any traditional relationships of domination and subordination between them will become.”
—Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)
