I thought it would be nice to keep a record of the phones I'm using, just for posterity and so I have something to look back on. So every Monday I'll post a photo or two of my current phone, plus a few specs if I have them. Often I don't.
Let's start. Phone of the week, week 52 of 2008:
As you can see, it's a Windows Mobile communicator running WM 6.1. The screen is small, just 2.4 inches, but that's enough for a device this size. I mainly use it for texts and email, and it's ideal for that. I'm used to typing on the keyboard, and I've got used to the screen. It has a microSD slot and GPS, so you can navigate with a map if you need to.
There isn't much else to say, except that I've loaded it with my favourite SPb Software apps and use it constantly. The design is a bit plain, but the buttons are comfortable and responsive, and it's quite fast. I should confess that I'm a fan of unusual devices, especially ones with a QWERTY keyboard.
