Do You Remember Which One was You First One?

Bag phone...don't remember the year.

I started with a flip phone like #12 when I was 22 back in 2010. Everyone was like, well that's gonna be the downfall of Dustin. I've worked my way up and been using an S8+ for the past few years and you can imagine the trouble I've gotten in since.

iPaq phone and Handspring Treo are missing from the list. The OG smartphones.

Had them all in some form except #8. That was my Holy Grail back when the Matrix came out. I wanted one so bad. But they were a EU only. Still hunt for one everynow and then on eBay.

How did you text on that or surf the ODT going down the road?

Only on nights and weekends.

Bag phone. Worth every penny to keep from having to search for working pay phone, then stand in freezing cold and rain to use one!
I’m still using the latest iteration of AT&T’s free flip phone.
But, with everything being done by texts and qr codes now, think my New Years Res. needs to be let go of the past and grab a smart phone.

Welcome to the year 2000. Just kidding many days I wish I could go back to a flip phone that was only used for phone stuff. I waste so much time mindlessly scrolling. The worst part it Im aware and do it anyway

#4 was my first. Wife and I had to fight as to who was carrying it.

I still have a Motorolla 1996 Olympic cell phone #4

Now that I look at this on a computer and not my phone, I realize that #8 is the 7110, not the 8110. The 8110 did not have the spring assisted flip down cover; it was added for the effect in the movie. The 7110 did, but it wasn't styled the same. Co-incidentally, I just did a quick look through eBay and the 8110, which for all intents and purposes is a paperweight that will never do anything other than sit there, is still going for a few hundred. Hard to believe that thing cost $1000 when it came out and I just paid $250 for a Google Pixel 3XL.

So I used all these and kept them as conversation pieces.

Of course who can’t forget beepers and old radios too.
