MOBILE PHONE! (or cellphone if you prefer...)

After breaking my previous one, I got myself a new phone yesterday. It is a Samsung Galaxy Ace Android phone, and I really like it. It is taking a while to get used to the touch screen, but it's full of useful (and useless!) stuff.

This got me thinking about the very first phone I owned. It was a Nokia 3210 with a black and white (well, Game Boy-esque) screen, complete with Snake (remember that?) I bought it with some of my wages from my summer job working at the same office as my mum. With a later wage packet I bought a Scotland flag fascia (to express my Scottish heritage) from one of those 'gadget shops' which were popular at the time (there were two in the mall I used to frequent during my weekends, and four-hour breaks at college on Thursdays I had one year). When I upgraded to the next model up, the 3310 (which was pretty much the same thing, only smaller, and with smaller buttons...), I gave the old 3210 to my dad, Scotland cover and all (which he kept, being Scottish! ) My dad seems to get most of my old phones...

So do tell. Do you remember what your first mobile/cell was? Any memorable handsets...?
