Alcatel has a long established history in telecommunications which was strengthened in 1986 with the acquisition of the European division of ITT. In 1998 Alcatel Alsthom as it was known then, split into Alsthom and Alcatel with Alcatel focusing solely on telecommunications. Further acquisitions followed and on 1st December 2006, Alcatel-Lucent was formed following a merger with Lucent Technologies which itself had evolved from AT&T.

The Alcatel HD2 One Touch Pro was introduced in 1998 and the model shown here is promoted through Barclaycard. Its monochrome display is 4 x 16 characters in size, it has a vibrating ringer and has a phone book that can store up to 100 numbers.
