AUDIOVOX

MINI HANDHELD

PORTABLE CELLULAR

TELEPHONE

Audiovox introduces Minivox, MVX-500, one of the smallest mini portable cellular phones in the world.

It weighs a feather-light 10.6 ozs. and provides ap proximately 65 minutes of talk time and 12 hours of

standby time. The optional extended life battery give you up to 120 minutes of talk time and 20 hours of standby time.

The Minivox MVX-500 delivers exceptionally high performance in one very compact package. Audiovox has utilized the latest in micro electronic technology to deliver a handheld portable phone that is over 35% smaller and lighter than previous models.

Minivox is the slimmest phone on the market today and it will fit neatly into you pocket or purse. The entire cellular electronics and transceiver are built right into the remarkably slim handset (only 0.7

inches thick).

The Minivox is packed with features. Its dual posi

tion antenna enables calls to be made or received

while the antenna is in the down position. It has two-

one touch speed dialing keys, a battery level indica tor, large send and end keys and a “stay alive” feature that gives the user time to change batteries without losing the call.

The MVX-500 also features “any digit key” answer that allows you to push any digit key to answer the phone.

Optional accessories include and extended life bat tery, travel trickle charger (for greater portability when away from home), leather carrying case and a hands-free car kit for in vehicle use with a RJl 1 Jack.

The Minivox also comes with something only an Audiovox phone can give you... a “where ever you

need us” nationwide network of cellular service

centers, ready whenever you need us.
