How Old Were You When You .... Got Your Very First Mobile Phone?
I think I must have been about 21 and only costed 10 pounds a month BUT the calls were like 5 minutes free per month and 80p per minute after that .. LOL

Sounds young, but I was one of the last ones out of my group of friends to get one! And I'm one of the oldest.
:thumb:
I can easily imagine giving my kids a mobile each when they're all young - peace of mind for me - plus you can track the phone's location on the web these days ...
And it was one of these bastards:
Yeah, I think that's the main reason why everyone seems to have one now.
For some reason, we still have some of the early phones like Philips Savvy. (which were bloody huge)
I got loads of old phones, no one wants them .. LOL
But if you put a PAYG sim card in one and register it with a tracking service makes a poor man's Car Tracking device - useful if you car is stolen.
3310? I can't believe I only had that phone about 3 years ago.:o
That was my first phone I still have mine, I'd LOVE to get it working.
Great phone that was
I remember my Mam and Dad hated the idea, and I was at the prime of my teenage rebellion. And everybody texted in capitals. HI HOW ARE YOU I HOPE YOUR OK LOTS OF LOVE XX
Times changed now though, my Mam has a better phone than I do :crying:
I liked that phone apart from the size of it.
I remember that. I also remember them changing their name and me confusing everyone by still calling them BTCellnet.
It was a motorola, but i don't know which one, and it was on a vodafone contract which was a very poor move on my parents' part... they eventually took the contract off me because i used to rack up bills of about £100 on it! Oops.
Yeh one2one changed to t-mobile aswell - and confused every1 aswell.
Had the big brick of a nokia with the interchangable covers. I had black with green lightening :thumb: And snake. Best phone game ever. Until the next model of nokia where they had snake 2 and the edge of the screen no longer killed you
I always wonder about little kiddies with cell phones... who do they really have to call?
