The Motorola Manhattan (mp1-1d11) appears to have also been released as the Memphis and on the Orange network, as the mr201. This candy bar style mobile dates from 1998 and provided the standard set of phone functions and support for sending and receiving SMS text messages. It had a small LCD display and keypad function buttons dedicated to the address book, menu, and SMS messaging. The 4.8v rechargeable battery can be replaced by four AA cells as an alternative.

Unfortunately nothing else is known about the features or performance of this mobile.
