I think the idea of a list of "Cellular Codes" for programming your
own cell phone (rather than pay the dealer $25 to do this SIMPLE
procedure) makes a LOT of sense. Easy reference to this info will
encourage people to reprogram their phones in the correct manner,
which hopefully will show some of the (cheaper) Cell Co's that their
customers object to being continuously "nickled and dimed" for every
little "change of service" or by paying excessive roam and "daily
roam" charges.

I typed up a list of Audiovox CMT-450 (and 400/500 series in general)
programming codes a while back. I think I may have even posted it
here. If there is any interest in an "archive" of codes, I'll repost
it or submit it to the "archives".
