I found my old 7110 Nokia today, sadly when put on charge nothing happens, any tricks to revive this old phone as I would love to get it going.

I use a Nokia 1600 as my daily mobile, but would love to bring the 7110 back as it is still a cool phone.

Woah!!! amazing site some models there I have liked for ages, I hate the modern phones which are ten trillion things at once which never work and break if you fart wrong while they are in your pocket.

Isn't that called "following through"? - and if that happened, would you want to put it next to your ear? :erm:
