Phones
In this thread I brag about my wicked sweet Blackberry Torch and I guess you can also brag about your inferior phones as well.
My Torch can do mobile IRC, has both a touchscreen and full keyboard, a 5.0 mp camera, and also emulates GBC pretty decent as well. I also wrote this thread with it. Now I can truly oppress forum dwellers no matter where I am!
Let us now discuss your crappy lesser phones and more importantly apps for my phone.

Re: Phones
You guys and your fancy phones. I keep it simple and reliable: Edit: oh and when i want to look awesome i use this: If you guys don't believe me, i can take a picture of it. [with me in it obviously] Touch screen awesomeness. You just look really random when your talking into it, i swear to god everyone stares when you hold your watch up to your head and start talking.

Re: Phones
My previous phone was at least four years old, had all the paint chipped off and had the battery held in with a rubber band. Once, a person was joking that he'd empty his water bottle on it. I unscrewed the cap, emptying the water directly on to it and then we played cricket with him using the empty bottle as a bat and me tossing the phone as a ball. The phone worked perfectly well, because there wasn't much left to break to begin with.

Re: Phones
Mine's broken to the point it won't ring when i receive a call, which I think is due to a freak accident with a magnet breaking the part of the disk memory storing which ringtone is selected, because upon entering the tone select screen it instantly crashes and then resets to the home screen. I might try to edit that back and see if I can fix it... I'd buy it again in an instant. $40 3 years ago and still does what I use it for: texting and reminders. It can also do fun tricks like exploding apart and going swimming, but I've stopped doing them really. I've almost worn through all of the printed letters on the keypad. Nokia 1208.
I'll get a new phone soon, I suppose.

Re: Phones
Damn kids with all their new technologies. I remember back when having a keyboard phone was the newest and coolest thing you could have.

Re: Phones
*Not my picture. It can run Android (2.2 and 2.3), Honeycomb (Nothing really works, though), WP7, and they're working on MeeGo as well. If Apple wasn't so protectionist we'd probably have iOS too. Heh. Quote: Sorry I can't hear you over google stealing your browser history to sell to ad agencies. If you really believe that BS, then just use dolphin browser. It's better than the default browser anyway. It's got tabs, gestures, plugins, themes, and an easily accessible bookmark/browsing history. Just swipe right.
