Motorola 3788
Nokia 3310
Panasonic G60 or somet (cant remember where this came from, crap phone, lasted about 6 weeks before I dropped it and it broke )
Back to "trusty" Nokias: 7250 (which fell out fo my pocket and lost all sound (wouldnt ring, i couldnt hear people talk, people couldnt hear me talk etc) however it had amazing battery life.
Onto a Nokia 6230 at the mo, which has proved to be quite reliable. Been bounced a few times and its still working anyway

Blimey, everyone seems to have loads of phones over the years. I've had a few but not as many as most, probably because the contract i've had for the last 7 years does not allow me to upgrade handsets unless I change the tariff.... I dont think so!
First phone was as said above was the Motorola Flare on One2One.
Then some Nokia house brick on Vodafone, aquired a few different Nokia handsets from various sources, mainly 5110s, 6150s, ported over to PAYG then realised how crap that was!
Took out a Genie contract and ported my number but without a handset, and have had various Nokias 3210s, 6210s, 7210s, 8210s and I cant remember the names of some of them, recently got a Sony W800 and its taken soem getting used to.

My only complaint is it doesn't recognise the memory card until about 12 hours after you have fitted it...

I had as my first phone, some horrible Motorola (I think) with the flip front. It used to take a whole sim card from underneath.
Was on "One to One"'s free evenings and weekend contract, which was invaluable, and lost the company a fortune!
Then changed to the Ericson 628 as above, and had a Flare.
Then Nokia 5.1, 3110, 3210, 5110, 6210, 6230, and now the W800.
