Nortel was founded in 1895 as the Northern Electric and Manufacturing Company supplying telecommunications equipment to Canada's new telephone network. From those beginnings it grew to become a major international provider of telecommunications equipment, changing its name to Northern Telecom Ltd in 1976 and to Nortel Networks Corporation in 1998. Unfortunately Nortel suffered a series of financial problems which resulted in it announcing in June 2009 that it was to cease operations and sell off its constituent businesses.

The Nortel Nevada was released in 1996 and is believed to be a re-branded version of the Nortel 2000 for the mercury one2one network. Just below the screen it carries the PAC logo depicting the fact that this mobile was for the Personal Communications Network, 1800MHz network, created exclusively for GSM digital services.

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