Cellextrincs Wireless Corporation, also known as Cellextrincs Wireless and just Cellextrincs, is a publicly-traded, state-authorized, telecommunications company in the Empire Of Makko Oko specializing in mobile phone services. Cellextrincs Wireless was originally founded as Stanford Cellular on September 9th, 1993 by Annie Stanford as the first ever mobile phone carrier in the nation.

History
Stanford Cellular
When the Republic Of Makko Oko was first established, no infrastructure or support systems existed and the cities were simply ones of the tribal nature, dating back to a century in the 1800's. In those times, no phone or internet infrastructure existed, and TV and entertainment didn't exist either. This would all change on July 7th, 1992 when Alice Stanford and one of her friends from an international college they had both attended, Wayne Guerrero, got together in the small town of Zuzak, Makko Oko and laid out the plans for an "instant money-maker", that being telecommunications technology.
This plan would prove fruitful when a successful test call from Zuzak to Orion was conducted between Wayne and Alice, using specially developed receiving and sending equipment, referred to as the "SE-RE CALLER", on October 16th, 1992. On January 15th, 1993, Wayne and Alice would enlist the help of Beatrice Serrano, who at the time had not yet founded Makko Telecom. They had heard about her from a coding class that Alice had taken to help sharpen her skills in the specific languages necessary to develop the starting infrastructure.
Beatrice would help them and greatly improve the technologies until May 29th, 1993, when she would take a step back to begin development on her own dial-up infrastructure plans. On September 9th, 1993, the infrastructure was finally ready for public consumption and Alice and Wayne both jointly filed to incorporate Stanford Cellular Limited.
The Beginning
When Stanford Cellular began, the company had to develop and implement a phone numbering system to identify each household or individual. Phone calls could only be done at a home or business, as mobile phones produced internationally didn't support the unique phone numbering system of Stanford Cellular. When dial-up internet came around in 1995, Stanford Cellular had partnered with Beatrice Serrano's Makko Telecom to support the company and the internet before the service had officially launched. Historical financial reports dating to around that time state that Makko Telecom paid in excess of 600,000 SLO's in 1996 alone to Stanford Cellular for providing the phone number and the infrastructure needed to keep dial-up online.
When the government started using the internet, the government subsidized Stanford Cellular to drastically lower the costs that Makko Telecom had to pay. By 1999, Makko Telecom had mostly moved away from Stanford Cellular, excluding some rural areas, and had established their own infrastructure.
Growth
Stanford Cellular had a rapid growth right from the start, unlike most other companies getting their feet off the ground at the time, with the realm of technology being dealt with being a big help as well. At the start of 1994, Stanford Cellular had a service area covering almost 30% of the population, and by 1996, that service area jumped to 66%. This was possible so quickly due to the fact that all you needed was a phone, and a phone line to be installed, unlike dial-up which was quite different and more costly to install, due to dial-up being newer than phone technology.
Pricing
The Switch To An International Phone Numbering Format
Stanford Cellular had kept their original phone numbering system until around April of 1999 when Annie Stanford, CEO and Wayne Guerrero, COO, had gotten together in a meeting with the President of the Republic Of Makko Oko at the time, Julius Knudsen, who was at his last year of his term, and international executives from other mobile carriers, and had formulated and agreed to a plan to establish the IPNP (International Phone Numbering Plan), which guided carriers and governments into getting phone numbering systems setup and supported internationally and vice versa domestically.
This switch led to a temporary increase in pricing, with pricing going up 73% for almost 2 years to cover the costs of implementing the plan. By 2001, the original phone numbering system had been completely discontinued.
