Found a 20 year old photo in my "to sort" directory in my photo dump.
1st September 2005.
A photo of my first phone, a Nokia n-gage, ringing as I called it after transferring my own sim to a friend's phone for this experiment. I think there was a way to take screenshots on the n-gage, but it didn't work when the phone was ringing.
That phone doesn't power up any more (not sure if it's still around or trashed), but the 1gb memory card that was in it is still with me, with all the data that was on the phone when it was last used! Among other things, it has a backup of the internal memory of the phone, a paltry 4mb... of which some 800kb was taken up by every single SMS I received over 4 years - 2004 - 2008. I don't know of any software which can read it, unless I fire up a Symbian emulator and install the app to restore the backup (I think I still have the installer in a backup somewhere!)... that will make for some interesting reading!
