Default Classic phones!

I broke my SonyEricsson the other day, so whilst I wait for the new one to be delivered i've dug this classic out of the drawer...





It reminded me of how cool it is

No MP3 player or million mega-pixel camera... but the front fires down to answer a call with style

Classic right enough Phil, my Dad still uses the same phone, I gave him it years ago........he wont part with it either...says that modern phones and their buttons are to much hastle......i think its the srole button that makes it so appealing.

That phone was a true workhorse... The Mercedes Benz of the phone world - it would never break!

Back in the days when Ericssons had a one line display and Nokia ruled the roost with 3 lines on the phone above
