maybe it was nextel. it worked like a wlakie talkie adults beep beep to others and start talking

Nextel was a service provider. Motorola developed the technology that included the two way radio feature, and manufactured most (maybe even all) of the models offered with Nextel.

Those are the phones that had a window on the flip part to allow display of the inner screen even when it's flipped shut?

When VCRs came out.
When Atari 2600 came out.
When the Apple II came out.

How about the commodore super 98 or something like that?

IBM compatible?

I recall reading an article in Hebrew a few years ago that mentioned many differences between once and now. One that comes to mind:
"I remember when a rabbi was the one who gave a hesped and a badchan was one to make us laugh..."

That flip was from the fancier nextel phones and only came out a few years after the original bricks

...motorola star-tac phones were the best, and most common on the market.
