Just had a comment remind me of my old blackberry phone from circa '08. I'm not sure it would stand up well for utility on most functions of smart phones today. I think It would stand up fine in some phone specific functions.

What are some old/older devices, analog or digital that you owned and miss, or at least have some nostalgia for?

No limit, did you own an abacus?

You can still pick up an old IBM model M keyboard in great shape on ebay. There's one on my desk at work, wouldn't trade it for any other keyboard in the world. Can use a PS/2 to USB adapter to plug it into your modern machine. Highly recommend.

Would advise against getting the Unicomp reproduction model M.. Even though they're still using the original tooling to manufacture the keyboards, the tooling is very old and worn out and it obviously shows in the quality of the keyboards they produce.
