It is not clear what he what he uses personally actually. The article mentions that the connection was lost and CNN had to call him back on HIS SON'S phone which is when he makes the comment that he is talking on a Vertu. So it may be his son that uses the Vertu regularly, at least that is how it comes across in the article.

He mentions he uses all kinds of phones, and gives the obligatory plug to Motorola (who else would he praise since he spent the best years of his life with them?).

I'd say its safe to say the every company gives him phones to try all the time. ]]>Jul 10th 2010 12:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/10/cellphone-inventor-marty-cooper-says-he-knew-everybody-would-hav/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/10/cellphone-inventor-marty-cooper-says-he-knew-everybody-would-hav/
