Down here in Kansai you can pick up real phones that have been swapped
for newer versions for free at many shops.

Be aware that having dissected your keitai, the company name etched on
any particular chip does not actually mean it manufactured that chip.

The 100Yen devices you can buy in Akihabara are just mock
ups. There are no electronics inside. But check at least the
guts of an old Sony CDMA one phone in our section "Keitai
Autopsy":
