  • Motorola M3288. That came on the market in 1999. My wife got it to use for her work a couple of years later, so it wasn't even cutting-edge then, and I only got it when she replaced it with the much smaller Ericsson T28.

    • Motorola M3288 was a dinosaur of a phone. As a person who is used to carrying my cellphones in my pockets, I don't think I would have lasted a few months carrying that phone around with me.

      • It was pretty damn chunky.

        My wife lugged it around in her handbag, but it had to live in my jacket pocket.

        Still, I've got big hands, and I found it a helluva lot easier to use than the phones that came out later when the move was towards making them increasingly tiny with itty-bitty keypads.
