I bought mine in late 1995.
Ah, happy days. Nothing about today's phones can quite beat the sense of importance you get from extending the aerial before answering a call.

I got one of these at Orange launch in April '94 (I used to have the Hutchinson Rabbit and they were offered as a replacement), I've still got it and it still works with the SIM from my Motorola V3

My partner's daughter borrowed it when she went clubbing the other week and was the centre of attention
