The later model Blackberries were actually pretty good. As was the HTC Touch Pro.

Still have a mid 90s Nokia.

Should charge it up and see if it still bothers to work.

They're less important than ever right now since we spend so much time at home. Think I'd manage.

I had the yellow and black one.

One could slam those things on the ground without or minimal damage.

World would be way better. Internet was designed for use on the computer. I understand that brings classism and restrictions into the conversation. But early-mid 2000s internet was a much more desirable place to browse, end of story.

Late 2000s too, but after 2010 it became a mess.

I used to make a joke that instead of a plague, it was the disappearance of cellphones. I can bet that many would wither and die like a rose in a desert without their precious phones.

1998 to 2008 Internet was amazing.

Now it's a burden or task.

And censorship. Say the wrong thing and get fucked. Harder.

And lets not even begin with the forced shit that was GWX and updates that caused your computer to become a goddamn brick for 2 DAYS, in the most technologically dependent society of all time.
