The Nokia N900 was my fond memory. It ran a version of Linux, opening 'terminal' on my phone never got old.
I had one of those for a while. That was the best worst phone I ever owned. It was awesome at absolutely everything except being a phone...
I never spoke to anyone so it was fine lol
I was more of a Palm guy back then, but I picked up a Droid after getting sick of Palm fucking up their new OS and cheaping out on their flagships. They could have been great, but they chose to be shit because they took too many shortcuts and fought too much internally. Design/interface wise, the Pre and PalmOS were brilliant - way ahead of their time.
I miss my Samsung Alias and Alias 2. They were good times.
I'd love another alias. That was my favorite phone.
Of all the "Feature Phones" I ever had, and I had a bunch, the Alias and it's successor the Alias II were my easily my favorites.
I felt like I skipped this. People my age went to pagers, then sidekick phones, then touch screens.
I went from beeper, to flip phone, then palm pilot.
I must have had serious Wallstreet Stock Broker energy as a teenager.
I loved my G2.
It's in my nightstand drawer now, plump from bad battery bloat. I ran it for 10 years as my bedside alarm clock. It ran a long gone app called NightClock.
bad battery bloat
We call that a "Spicy Pillow" sir

In thought the SMS said SUS and got really confused for a second
