If I am right, there was a manufacturer which called its mobile phones as "Handy" and that was taken over by Germany's people as "NATEL" was taken over in Switzerland, which originary means "Nationales Autotelefonnetz", national (or nationwide) phone network for cars. Nevertheless, when a German asks for a Handy in Switzerland, he recieves a dish detergent, whose brand name is handy. When he wahts to get a mobile phone, he shoud ask for a Natel, even though he will not like to use a "Funksaurier" but a cell phone. Nowadays, NATEL is the brand name of the mobile network of Swisscom but is still used for the handset equipment, regardless of the used network.

But that is offtopic, once more.

Ich kann mich noch an die Suche nach einem Begriff erinnern (so um 1996), unter anderem auch von der Gesellschaft für deutsche Sprache. Kleine Auswahl: "Rufli", "Ohrly", "Digifon", "Nervi", "Griffi", "Yuppilutscher", "Portable Telekommunikationseinheit (Porteko)", "Porty", "Birdie", Handfon", "Funkolino", "Taschtel", "Schnulofon", "Kablofon", "Calli"...
Dagegen finde ich finde ich Handy geradezu grossartig. Und ist auch nicht schlechter als cell phone oder mobile.

Musstest Du unser "Gewissen" heraufbeschwören . . . ?

And this Lock from "Anchor-Las" is suitable for Snowman-Cylinders too
So, this means, that the measurements are so close to the Oval-Cylinders (same height?), that it fit in the same cut-out, fixt with a screw? :eek2:
