back to the original question I looked around a little and it appears that
anyone could (have) plug(ed) togehter some "zerophone":

* RasPi Zero (W)
+ 4G/3G LTE HAT Modul für Raspberry Pi - e.g. https://www.rasppishop.de/4G-LTE-HAT
+ eInk display - e.g. https://www.rasppishop.de/27-Zoll-eInk-Display-fuer-Raspberry-Pi-GPIO

Well, what is missing is a 0-9#* keypad and buttons and a battery solution.

Another aspect is why I have written "(have) plug(ed)" - those components
are notavailable nowadays...

BR,
Nikolaus
