                Hanif, 06 Sep 2020At that time, windows PDAs , Blackberry devuces were more s... moreYou're wrong on this, and you are probably thinking of the Nokia 9110 / 9110i Communicators... Or perhaps even the Nokia 9210 / 9210i / 9290 Communicators.

                When the original Nokia 9000 Communicator was released in August 1996, Windows CE (which ran on "Plamtop PCs") was still three months away. With the exception of cellular / telephone capabilities, "Palmtop PCs" were *mostly* feature comparable to the Nokia 9000 Communicator, but it would be several years before they gained any significant traction (and even longer before they featured integrated cellular / telephone capabilities).

                As for BlackBerry, they were making popular products - but nothing which was even close to being feature comparable to the Nokia 9000 Communicator... It wasn't until about 2006 that BlackBerry started to gain traction and take over the smartphone market in the realm of professionals.

                  ypcx, 08 Sep 2020my 9300 had the Snake game, but only on the front. is Pubg... moreWell yeah in most ways. Graphics, controls etc.
                  Just that it's charm is not the same as snake's

                    is Pubg better than Snake?

                        Peter-B, 06 Sep 2020You're right, of course, thanks for the correction.My Pleasure.

                            The problem is phone companies are doing obscene profits. For example See what Apple is doing. They are charging 3 to 4 times of the manufacturing costs. Yeah, there is always costs for development but not that high. Things are getting out of control. The problem is the same people clapping and cheering at these companies when companies are simply cutting their pocket.

                              Anonymous, 06 Sep 2020Stupid remark! In 2000' a Motorola startac was over 60... moreWhy do you have to be so $tpid to compare a phone from 2020 with a phone from 2010? No wonder technology is advancing.
                              How much was galaxy 4? How much was iphone 5/5s during their launch? And how much a galaxy s20 cost now?
                              Don't prove that you are so du.mb. Better keep quiet.
