    Mine was almost the same thing... Can't remember the designation, but it was a Nokia, and it was almost the same exact body style as yours.

    I wanna say it was about 2000-2001.

    Oh my God!!! This is the first cellphone I ever used ( not owned ), a friend of mine had this phone around 1994 when the first cellphones started to arrive to South America, I remember his bill was like 500 dollars a month back then... Crazy..

    Oh heck, I don't recall the exact model number. I bought my first cellphone in 1989 and it was either made by Nokia or Motorola, but I can't remember which.

    I used a bag phone at work (government issued) but my first personal cellphone wasn't.

    Samsung A460

    It looked cool, but didn't work too well. It ended up being the first & last time I bought a Samsung phone.

    That was my first one as well. Man I thought I was so cool. I even bought the extended battery which added 3848309584 pounds and 454580495680594 inches in depth to it.

    I remember that phone. I had one as well. Compared to the Motorola Digital Personal Communicator, the Nokia was downright tiny.
