Which was the first mobile phone you owned?

[Goldstone Rapper]

2000

Changeable XpressOn phone cover and rubbery keys. Had to press the 7 key four times to type the letter 'S'. At least the battery lasted about five days.

an Orange Bosch...circa 1999

The 5110 was the first phone I owned on contract, signing up shortly after my 18th birthday like the geek that I am.

My first ever phone however was this ugmo

I really can't remember the exact model, but it did look very much like this.

Remember when that mysterious Scottish bloke changed your voicemail to something fairly insulting

It looked rather like this, weighed a ton and cost a fortune.

Bought for work. Thankfully, they paid for it - so I didn't, strictly speaking, own it. The battery pack lasted for about six hours. And the available network coverage was very limited (most of Sussex was out of range).

I don't kid myself that I'm down with the youth, unlike you Timothy, or should that be Dumbledork?

Philips Savvy. Circa 2000. It was the time where all of my friends and I were all around 10 years old, we had no need for a phone at all but everyone had to have one

A Maxcom 4E

 

[Lord Bracknell]
