I remember how disappointed everyone was when they found out that the slide wasn't actually spring-loaded.

My dad had the successor to that phone in the early 2000s. It became my 1st phone when he upgraded.

Yes, there are a bunch of Nokias lying around. Basically all of them say "I don't care".

I always thought about one of those to use just as a fun phone. And im glad im not the only one who uses the term daily phone. I too have a beater phone ill switch between if i dont want to risk my other nokia. My personal favorite is the 9210, one day ill get one.
