Sharp 816SH

Before that I was using a Nokia N95 back in the UK.
Then before that was a wealth of other Symbian Series 60 phones.

 

[rwilliams]

Samsung Instinct. It was my first "smartphone" and I loved it, until I got the iPod Touch and realized how ridiculously inferior Samsung's OS was. Sprint tossed in enough extras (live TV, NFL Network, GPS) to make it worthwhile for the time I had it.

I came to the iPhone 3G from a Treo 750. And before that, a dumb phone in a CU500.

 

[IBradMac]

The iPhone was quite the leap in technology based on the replies.

I had the motorola slvr just before the original iphone. My husband won it by drinking about 100 mountain dews a week and entering in all those tiny codes on the lids. The iphone was the first time I had a phone that did more than just make phone calls. I don't think I could go back to a regular cell phone!

 

[LapsangSouchong]

Motorola Talkabout 180
July 2001 - April 2003

The first mobile phone I ever had, it was a telephone... that was mobile! Mine was black rather than blue.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sony Ericsson T100 & T105
May 2003 - May 2008

Much tinier and lighter than the Motorola, I even sent text messages with these. The T100 got a bit flaky at some point, needed a piece of card behind the battery to work, so I got a T105 as it was exactly the same, just silver instead of blue.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sony Ericsson w810i
June 2008 - July 2010

Inherited from a friend when he got a new phone, this had a pretty nice camera.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BlackBerry Bold 9000
March 2009 - September 2010

My work phone. Holy crap there's internet and email, GPS and a QWERTZ keyboard!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

iPhone 4
August 2010 - Present

The best tiny computer I've ever had.
