 I've still got a National Semiconductor LCD watch,
but the guts are 
rotted out from perspiration leaking into the case.  On the other 
hand, the Seiko self-winder I purchased the year before still works 
just fine. <snip>

You do mean L*C*D, right? Too bad, I've still got some National L*E*D
watch modules somewhere.

 I sometimes wonder if we'll have any operating
30-year old cell 
phones?

Last time I looked, people were still buying & selling analog phones, so
I suspect that in some parts of the world analog may be around for a
while yet; wanna buy a dozen or so, cheap? Have I got a deal for you...

I've got an old Motorola mobile phone that sits in the trunk, nice Contempra (?)
handset with a number display; does that count?
