Well, here that's common way that you leave your old phone to shop when you change phone to new one. Shops give some small discount when you leave your oldie there.

I usually save some oldies. If i lost my phone, then i have that oldie. Cellphone is only contacting equipment what i have, so it's quite important thing to me.

Just because nostalgy i saved my first cellphone, old Motorola... was it "Walkman" or something like that.

The first mobile phone I had was the old, legendary Mobira Cityman NMT. It was actually my father's phone but he didn't use it very much. The voltage was 11.5 V and when you had a long phone call the battery became so hot that you could hold the phone only with your fingertips.

After that I bought Ericsson 628. It was quite good and reliable. The only problem was it didn't function well when it was freezing.

Then I got a used Nokia 5110 from my friend and it's absolutely the best phone I've ever had. At the end, after three years, the battery was still original and it worked fine. I had to charge it only once per week. There was the well-known display problem but it would have been easy to fix. I was stupid and gave it away when I bought a new 6150. This phone is the worst one I've ever had; the keys had connection problems after a year, there were bugs in the software and sometimes it turned off itself without any reason.

I started to use my mother's 3310 after she died. Then I bought my current phone and gave my late mother's phone to my niece.

When I am fed up with my phone, I pass it on to my wife... :lol:

Then she passes her phone to the kids that can play with it... :lol:

And I have one left behind in my desk, in case something happens to the one I am using.

Maybe you can wonder what can happen to a phone ; well here are two examples that happened to me :

- My first phone got stolen (and that is VERY annoying, because, you can block the phone, but you also lose ALL your contacts that you have registered on your phone...)
- My fifth phone got crashed under my car : I am use to carry my phone in my breast pocket of my shirt and I was in the garage, the phone felt and I did not notice this. When I got the car out of the garage I heard a strange noice, but I thought that it was a toy of the kids... Too bad, it was my phone (and it really did not look OK at all :lol: )

My first mobile phone was a Sagem, a really cheap one, back in 1997. It lasted almoust 3 years. Than I bought a Siemens (can't remember the model) and I've sticked with it until I changed phone last year for another Siemens, the A70. I don't like complicated phones, with cameras or MMS. I keep on using the ones that can only make phone calls and receive/send SMS. That's good enough for me... :P
I only change phone when they're almoust dead... so they are with me almoust 2 to 4 years. 8)

My first GSM was a

Philips Fizz, after that
Nokia 6150
Nokia 6210
Nokia 7650 - the first smartphone with an operating system, did love it 8)

Now I am using a Nokia 9300 and love it 8) I will use this one until Nokia releases a 3G version of Nokia's communicator series, because I want the datatransfer of 3G, otherwise the 9300 is great, EDGE is after all nice.

( Before my first GSM I was using an Ericsson NMT )

I use them a lot but had never spent much money in mobiles. My first was a Sagem in 1998. In 3 years I had 4 or 5 Sagems (712 and 715, blue and black, uniband and dual band) until I bought a second hand (3 months use) Siemens C35 for half the original price.
After that I "borrowed" my father's Nokia 6210 in exchange for a Nokia 3210 I won :D , after two years I received a Nokia 3330 on my birthday. When it started having battery problems I returned to Siemens and bought a CV65 in a promotion for less than 100€. It has been my phone for more than a year and I hope it lasts a lot more.
