The chronology of my mobile phones

Chen gave me a house-warming gift for my new blog, Being Rinnah, in the form of a tag. But... tags fit better here because It's all about the spin... so I'll do it here.

This is a homegrown tag, and I'm proud to say that I know the creator of the tag... Leonard! (whom I've tagged many times too. LOL!) The rules of the tag are simple:

~ Start copy ~

List down the following:
1. The phone(s) that you owned previously
2. The phone(s) that you're using now
3. The phone(s) that you're looking at to replace the current phone

~ End copy ~

The past
My very first phone was the Nokia 3210. At the time (circa 2000), it was one of the first mobile phones with built in antenna, so it was a good phone back then. It's also the sturdiest of all the Nokia phones I've owned! Bought it at the time for about RM400 - 450.


About two years down the line (circa 2002) I changed to the Nokia 3315, which was supposed to have better features than the 3210. I remember that I had LOTR midi ringtone and b&w screensaver on this phone! I think I got this phone for around RM400.


Then approximately another two years later (circa 2004) I got yet another Nokia phone, this time, the Nokia 2300. This was the smallest phone I ever owned. So small, so slim, so light! But it was also the most problematic Nokia out of all the models I have used. It irritated me so with constant hanging and shutdowns that less than 8 months down the road, I traded it for...


Another Nokia - the Nokia 3100 (circa 2005). This was my first phone with color screen, and Internet connection via WAP. And used faithfully until one month ago when I got...



The present
The Nokia N80 internet edition! Wheeeee! Wifi capability, mp3 ringtones and camera! All my dreams come true! For a more detailed review on the N80, please visit Rinnah's Marketplace.



The future
Seeing as how I just got my N80, it would be too greedy of me to think of changing my phone so fast, but if you ask me what I want, I would have to say the Nokia N95 8GB edition. LOLOL!

The tagged people
Now, I can't kill off this tag since it's a brand-new, made in Singapore, tag from Leonard. So I shall pass it on to these peeps who I know have new(ish!) phones...

Oh no, another one who's been Applified!
