i860 was the goat, i730 was right behind it
i930 was laggy as hell for no reason
Sidekick 2/LX was the GOAT phone in general before Apple took over

i730 was the first real cell phone I owned.
Dont think I've ever been so happy to get an electronic in my life before or after that.
I wanted that Sidekick 3 LX in blue so bad when it came out.

Yeah the i730 was legit. The way it used to light up when it rang
i95 was cool too. I bought a CD off ebay with like 1000 ringtones for that thing. Used have "Where Da Hood At" on full blast, speakers sounding like a broken clock radio when someone called.

I always wanted a royal blue velour Sean John sweatsuit with a crisp 3X white tee and AF1s Just never pulled the trigger.
Then I wanted a full on Evisu fit with the jeans, red track jacket, and belt to go with the OG white/red XIIs I got. Whole fit was like $600. I saved the money but my mom refused to buy it because a kid got killed for his Eddie Bauer a few years back... it's probably a good thing I didn't get my own debit card until the end/after HS...

I had one. It was cool in theory, but getting random. Reps and people just start talking out loud was no go. It always used to happen when I was in class tooI wanted the i530 just because of how cool I thought it looked.

The early days of social media was the best.
I was surprised how many guys I know have 0 phone game. They would not have survived the 90s/ early 2000's
I remember as a kid taking up the courage to call up a girl you barely knew was SO nerve wracking. Especially if you live in the gulf, you barely have interaction with girls unless you are in some sort of international school (I was not).
Back before facebook and all that jazz, we had a group of friends and all it took was just ONE of us to get a chicks number and if that works out, she brings her friends and we bring ours. It was so hard to do that because places were limited. It's either at the mall where security guards and parents were watching or one of us who kind of knew a girl so he and his buddy would camp out the girls school waiting for her to leave and we literally get 30 seconds but that felt like an eternity. Then in early 2000's Starbucks started popping up and became the go to spot, it's easy to ditch our parents to go to starbucks and there were no security guards. It was glorious.
Then facebook came along and made things SO much easier.
Good times.
Damn, makes me feel old as hell...
Class of 2000
Kind of the time before technology boomed and took over our lives.
Parties were wild, and it was all word of mouth. Talking to girls was actually talking to girls, communication was done via land line. Going on the internet was done via land linelol ). Gas was cheaper.
Just different, we have more information now than we know what to do with.
This.
Having the courage to walk up and talk to a cute girl... to her face... you would win some and lose some... different than now.
You had to have phone game once you got her number too. Plus remember calling the house and her mom or dad answering. LOL
Nobody had their faces glued to a phone screen.
Big Pimpin playing.
Rocking Polo Sport and Pleasures cologne. All the fine girls wore Happy and Romance.
Daisy Dukes
C/O 2000 here. LOL

I remember how excited I was when my parents finally installed internet at the house. They'd get so mad at me when they would try to call the house and no one would pick up because I was on the internet
Finding hacks around Netzero so I didn't have to see their ad displayed 24/7.
I miss the simple days of Napster, Bearshare, etc.

I remember driving to NorCal the day after to visit my cousin, Oversized laker flag on my car and all that. I pulled up on his drive way beeping so that chump knew I had arrived. I saw him crack the blind open and act like he was asleep, even turned off his phone
I said F' it I'm driving back home to LA. I stopped at a gas station (Still in NorCal) so I could take the Browns to the Super Bowl and fill up my bucket with some gas. I came back out and saw someone had ripped off the flag and left it on the floor. NorCal dudes were in shambles. This was one of the greatest days to be a Laker fan. Top 5 most important shot in NBA basketball that I've seen on tv.
