Still have this device somewhere
and 2 HTC Diamonds ( Windows CE ) - lol
I had one of these! Qwerty keyboard on a phone is a thing I sorely miss.
Everyone seems to, except major phone manufacturers. 😡
Or AZERTY in this case
Motorola Backflip FTW!
I had this guy (Motorola Cliq) and loved it:
I loved my slider as well. They made texting so much easier. I went from one of those to a blackberry bold.
I did the opposite, kind of - from a Blackberry Pearl to my Cliq.
Texting was def easier on them. Plus it was fun to pop the keyboard out. The slider was very satisfying.
They made great fidget toys.
BRING BACK PHYSICAL KEYBOARDS WITH BUTTONS!
Back when Google wasn’t evil, had barely killed any products and we were all optimistic about the future of tech.
I had a couple Windows Mobile/Pocket PCs. They were flawed, yet awesome in their own way. Early Android was clearly better, but sadly it’s become a locked down spy fest. I’d love a new real “Pocket PC”.
The Nokia N900 was my fond memory. It ran a version of Linux, opening ‘terminal’ on my phone never got old.
MeeGo, then Maemo. It lives on in the successor SailfishOS.
I had one of those for a while. That was the best worst phone I ever owned. It was awesome at absolutely everything except being a phone…
I never spoke to anyone so it was fine lol
Still waiting for HTC to make a G3 :-(
My first smartphone is HTC and it looked like yours, but with android.
In thought the SMS said SUS and got really confused for a second
I would love a Bluetooth keyboard cover like that for my s22
I loved my G2.
It’s in my nightstand drawer now, plump from bad battery bloat. I ran it for 10 years as my bedside alarm clock. It ran a long gone app called NightClock.
bad battery bloat
We call that a “Spicy Pillow” sir
Bloated lithium ion batteries are a fire hazard and should be properly disposed of
Nowadays, we don’t even get keyboard covers for popular phones anymore.
