This is the competition for people with teh most retro phones or the most uber 1337 phones!

Rules are,

Just take a photo of you with the photo, and a sign saying either "Funky_Finny's Retro Phone Competition" or "Funky_Finny's Technological Phone Competition" to prove it's yours, and post the pictures here!
Winner will receive a +1 from all who think they are worthy (Me included, so there's 1 already if you win.)

Winner to be announced on Wednesday the 8th August, judged by me. (PM me if this is too soon for you, and you really want a picture in.)

I'm not even going to post a picture of my phone, as it's not amazing and it's not crap.

That defeats the purpose of having the Writing and Phone together.

Actually I'm not certain the pic is the correct model, and I can't remember the exact model number, but that's what it looks like, except it's all black.

Don, I think you're winning unless someone comes along with a BlackBerry..
Although, does that say "Zomg weird" in the top right?

It's "zomg werd", referring to "Technologicamical"

Mine does so much more than a Blackberry (even if they wave qwerty-keyboards)

Yes, but Blackberrys define the word Pimp

Pimp noun

He's got it there, has good ol' DonFck. However, I think he'd be hard pressed to defeat a Samsung Blackjack.

I would post my Motorola L6 up, but it's neither retro nor technological - so I'm comprehensively excluded from both competitions.
However, I think I have a couple of other old phones knocking about somewhere, so I might have to dig them out for retro points!

NOTE: If someone dares enter an iPhone into the technological competition, I will rip out their spleen through their anus and feed it to some rabid rottweilers in my area. To follow, I shall yank out the intestines of said fool, lasso them, and then proceed to swing them into the oblivion of next week. For good measure, the iPhone shall then be crushed into a fine paste and fed to my pet peregrine falcon.
For reference, this is what I look like:

And yes, I was shocked by Steve Jobs' entry from the top of my hollowed volcano. You can clearly see the effect it has had on my age, bearing witness to his Machiavellian appearance - I'm only 15, you see.

allow takin a photo of me with the phone. The phone IS my camera (5mp ownage) Jus take my word that this be my phone:
https://www.navigadget.com/wp-content/postimages/2006/09/nokia-n95-331.jpg
Nokia, just yesterday introduced its new N95 to the public. We didn’t believe the N95 specs when we first heard about them. This new phone comes with integrated GPS that lets you plan your route, find your way home and get to know places you’ve never visited. You can also fly over more than 100 countries, zoom to street level and get details on more than 15 million locations around the world. There’s no word on what kind of GPS chip is installed in the N95, or if the required maps come on a SD memory card. But here is what we know about the memory on the device:

Up to 160 MB internal dynamic memory for messages, ringing tones, images, video clips, calendar notes, to-do list and applications
Expandable memory: 128 MB miniSD card
Memory card slot supporting up to 2 GB miniSD memory cards
We don’t think 15 million POI’s can fit into that 160MB, so there’s a good chance you’ll have to carry a miniSD card with your maps on it. This multimedia phone which runs S60 (version 3) measures 99 x 53 x 21 mm and weighs only 120 grams!

With the Carl Zeiss optics on the 5 megapixel camera, you can capture print quality photos and DVD-like quality video clips. Photos and video clips can be enjoyed on a compatible television thanks to the device’s TV out feature and support for Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) technology.

Designed for High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) networks and with support for WLAN, EDGE and WCDMA networks, the Nokia N95 provides excellent coverage and speeds wherever you may be. In HSDPA networks, browsing the internet, reading email, streaming video and downloading large files can be carried out up to 10 times faster than with 3G.

The Nokia N95 also offers a first class entertainment experience with the combination of a large 2.6″ QVGA 16 million color display, impressive 3D graphics, built-in stereo speakers offering a 3D stereo effect, standard 3.5 mm audio jack, support for compatible microSD cards and mini USB for convenient data transfer. Browsing the internet on the Nokia N95 is a pleasure using the Nokia Web Browser with Mini Map, with new features such as a floating toolbar, password manager and auto complete, as well as web feeds with support for Atom and auto update.

TEH WINNURZ

There were only a few people who entered entered the tech competition, but it was still a hard decision.

Bennisboy, you might have won if you had entered, all I needed to see was a bit of the phone and the sign. So tough luck, really.
Darkfire, no offence but my friend has the same phone as you, and it's pretty bad
Bernadictus, your phone looks pretty bland from the outside (google pics) and everything on it is pretty much expected of the phones of today.
DonFck, your phone was pretty awesome! I checked out some of the specs online, and I wish I had one now. I think we have a winner.

DonFck FTW

Nobody entered the Retro Competition, but if Scorpion0x17 had he would have won it hands down.


Oh, also, [REB]Qrite, Touch-Buttons = fail.
