Nope you're not. Well I didn't own one but I used them back then. But it was 1992 when I got that one I posted, somewhere around there.

I had that flip phone as well. I don't think I got it until '93 or '94. I was thrilled that I could finally carry the phone with me.

I remember using velcro to hold the bag phones to my center console, so they wouldn't slide around.

I still laugh when people talk about the weight of the new phones, considering what we had 20 years ago.

I know you made a mistake - but am interested in which variant and when?

I had an Ericsson PH388 in 1997, a Nokia 6150 (the triband variant) in 1998, a Nokia 8810 in early 1999, a Motorola StarTac 130 in mid 1999 and a Nokia 7110 in late 1999 through to mid 2000.

I had that Nokia I mentioned then I remember getting a flip Samsung phone that was gray in color. It was quite nice. Then I got a Motorola Razor and that was my last phone before jumping into these modern phones we have now.

Behold the Siemens C25:

Apparently "The typical Siemens design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up".

I really can't believe what passed for fashionable in the nineties :rofl:

    • Didn’t Dbrand once complain that Casetify was ripping off their designs a well? seems pretty bad of them to try and get around Valve’s copyright this way with that in mind.
    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed by David Uzondu Image via Dbrand Dbrand has cancelled its highly anticipated Companion Cube enclosure for the Valve Steam Machine, which it teased back in November of last year with a concept render and sign-up page, because it did not ask Valve for permission first before manufacturing the case. According to Dbrand, it took the "backwards approach" of building the product first before asking for permission from the copyright holder. Seven months of work went into the project, requiring over a thousand engineering hours from the design team. Workers developed forty-four sets of injection molding tools, making a unique mold for each sub-component of the crate. When the Companion Cube went live on Monday last week, it, according to Dbrand, quickly became the second-fastest-selling product in the company's fifteen-year history, racking up orders for hundreds of thousands of units. Customers eagerly bought the $129.95 deluxe edition or the bare-bones $99.95 version, which the manufacturer cheekily branded as the "Poverty Cube". It was around this time that the legal eagles at Valve descended on the accessory maker with a formal demand. The developer pointed out that the iconic block design remains protected intellectual property from the game Portal, so unlicensed sales had to stop. Dbrand said that all its pleas to salvage the project with the Valve team, including proposals to run a properly licensed release under official terms "with their blessing", fell on deaf ears, so it had no choice but to obey and remove every trace of the product from the internet. If you bought the enclosure, the company said that banks will process your refund by the end of this week, but if it still hasn't arrived in your account by then, you should not hesitate to contact support. The Steam Machine itself is a high-performance console that Valve designed directly to bring PC gaming into the living room. It was announced on 12th November 2025 (the same day Dbrand announced the Cube) and runs on the Linux-based SteamOS, the same OS that powers the Steam Deck. As for the price, due to the shortage of memory and storage chips, the hardware cost landed much higher than people were expecting, starting at $1,049 for the 512 model (without a controller) or $1,128 with the new gamepad. The premium 2 TB model pushes those prices even higher, selling at $1,349 for the standalone console and hitting $1,428 if you want the bundle.
    • It's listed #399.99 on Amazon, per your link. It's not $299.99.
