I have about 4 old cell phones, they so old you can't make money off of it. I look online it said recycle. So I just let my 4 year old grandson play with it that way he want be messing with the house phone or my blackberry. He like playing with those old phones he think he be talking to his school friends or calling his dad or mom.

As long as they have no charge I'm sure that's fun :) but if they do have a charge watch out for that 9. Most phones when you hold 9 down for so long it will auto call 911 and send them a tracked location for the phone.
You might look into sending some of those phones to military troops or safe homes.

I forgot about the 9, because he want me to charge it up I tell him I can't find the charger. You no I never though about sending cell phone to military troops or safe homes. I no awhile back they had it on tv about sending your phones the troops or safe homes but I never heard anything about it again.

Hello, my friend.Your situation is quite similar to mine.I also have 4-5 cell phones at hand.But my decision is to transfer to my parents and relatives.First, they told me that they need a phone to keep in touch with friends,classmates and so on, and old one is the best.So I agree with them.and such disposal is a kind of material-saving.and I bought 3 new number card to them, so they could use it easily and happily.
SO the best way to dispose old antique is to take advantage of their value at best.

that's the bad part of gadgets. at first they are so expensive and after just a few months they will be out of value.

If they cannot be sold at any price then it is better to give to your loved ones for his or her use. I think your grandson has a lovely time with it. Make sure that you do not insert sim card into it and give him to play becuase they emits radiations, which affects your grandson badly.

It is play a role like antique.
Keep as a memorial all the time.
I also have a habit keep old things, same as you phone.
