2000

NOKIA 5190

my first phone,Bought it for RM 800. At that time Nokia has just release the 3210, the first model without any antena but cost around 2k if im not mistaken. Couldn’t afford it , and settle with this Nokia 5190. Six month later become a poor victim of humialiation. Great joke for my friends. Damn it, but still kindda love this phone for its astatue value.Finally  it broke down and before i could get it fix, i lost the phone when i accidently left my bag

2002

NOKIA 3210

A friend being nice to me and let me borrow her phone for several month, at this time 3210 has become some so called obselete.

2002

NOKIA 3310

Once I returned the phone, my ex gf let me borrow her phone so we could communicate

2003

ERRICSON T28

i need a phone urgently, bought a second hand at RM 400, broke down after a few months. Cant describe how obselete this phone at this time, but due to the size, it is still kindda cool.

2004

MOTOROLLA C353

Was a gift from my sister's admirer.she gave it to me then.It was during this time that color screen phone was first introduced and this was one of the very first model, but in the same time was one of  the worst phone ever..unfriendly and thousand of bugs.., even at that time. Market price valued at RM 600 at that time. The charging port broke down after a year of usage

2005

NOKIA 3200

Cool handphone with camera and torch light…damn  a torch light.... I bought this for RM 700 after series of negotiation. I remembered this was sold around RM 900 during that time

2005

NOKIA 7650

a fren wanted to sell his 7650, instead I offered him to sell my Nokia 3200 and we exchange phone.Nice camera, solid sliding phone but broke down after 6 month, was 2 years old phone by then

2006

NOKIA N-GAGE

Naturally , immediately after the phone broke down I need replacement. At this point I have started working and you can imagine how important my phone could be. Luckily a friend allow me to borrow his phone for a while. I found it funny to bring this phone to a meeting.

2006

NOKIA 6610

need phone replacement, though just a few months old, bought the phone for RM 200 from a good friend. He bough this for his staff, but never being used. So it is as good as new and he is just doing me a favor.

2006

NOKIA 6260

cool camera with a swirling , flip screen...cool features. Spend RM 1399 for this. Actually by the time I bough this phone, this phone has come near to end of its popularity, however somehow I felt so attracted to it. At this time NOKIA N70 was just launched but at that time, wasnt buying the idea of 3G

2006

HP IPAQ 6828

My dream phone at that time, bought it for RM 2000 though the market price is RM 2500 at that time. I felt guilty that my Nokia 6250 was only 4 months old, but a very good friend of mine who happen to be rich as well, know that I really want the HP, so offered to buy my 6260 for 600,(The phone shop only willing to take it for 400).He gave it to his wife and broke down 7 months later...errrr

2007

Nokia 6510

A gift from my ex gf. She has used this for a god 4 years, and wanted to migrate to london. She left the phone for me and six month later I dumped her…still keep the phone though.

2008

NOKIA 9500 COMMUNICATOR

I exchange phone with a friend for a good one month as I felt like using this. Bulky, heavy but feel great. I love it if not because of the size. Dreaming to get the the E90 that cosk RM 3K ++ at that time

Aug-08

NOKIA N70

The HP is too old, need replacement and need something with video conferencing capabilities. I just hooked up with my fiance at the that time.. Good bargain trade in the my old phone, add in 400 for 2 unit of  N70.(It was in the middle of the month and I dont have much to spare at this time)

Oct-08

LG KS 360

the nokia n70 is too outdated, the LG is a brand new phone., and cheap.trade in a N70 for RM 400, and add another 300 for new LG which is so cool with its QWERTY kepypad. Pity my girlfriend still using the Nokia N70 at this time….hehhehe. Great thing about this phone , though only equipped with 2 mega pixel camera, but snap great picture. Great memories of my trip to dusseldorf was recorded nicely by this phone.One of the best phone i ever had, but lose it on January 2009 when i left it in the car and send the car for repair. Genius....

Mar-09

NOKIA E71

Went to korea, my phone fell and broke down. Come back to malaysia aiming for iphone 3G, which would cost me nearly 3K. Then look at me "so kesian" fiance face. Then asked the salesmen the price of the E71 (which my dream phone in the year 2007). He quoted 1400 for the opening price. Bargain further, finally he agreed to buy my broken O2 atom life for RM650 and fully function O2 atom life of my fiance for RM700, (which each should cost around 300- 400 at other shop) add another 1200 and finally get two unit of Nokia E71 + accesories . Our bargaining chip, this is the third time we come over to buy two phone in a single receipt from him...hahahha....kesian that salesman la...berapa la dia hilang duit komisyen....muhahahahahah
