      Android is launched and till now no Windows Mobile or Nokia device? Must be boring.
      Blackberry is possibly the only decent phone here, but even then nothing compared to my HP iPaq 6915 bought in 2008.

                    Danger Sidekick did many things years before any smartphone platform, i wish to see more about in GSM Arena

                      [deleted post]Two questions:
                      1. Why would he?
                      2. How do you know he uses one?

                        Ooh! can't wait until next week!

                          I owned i-mate Ultimate 9502 which was one of the most risks and rugged mobile during 2006 with touch and stylus capabilities. Their camera was horrible and their support. Basically, HTC was making their mobiles but i-mate merely stamped their logo with premium. It was an interesting mobile those days

                              'I may have had it for less than a year before I accidentally jumped into the pool with it in my pocket.'
                              I jumped into lake with my less than month old Nokia N70 in my pocket that was bought on contract. Paid next 16 months for it and cried inside every time i did. :) Meanwhile my old trusty Siemens M55 helped me through the period.
