Let's remember Windows Mobile 6.1 !

My stepdad used to have a phone that ran this.
Also, found on Wikipedia:

I don't remember what Pocket PC I had with a gray scale screen (and the huge 32 MB CompactFlash card). I loved this thing but I really don't remember what brand it was. I don't think it was an iPAQ...
 
Had the touch pro, touch pro 2, Omnia 2. Went to android for the past few years and am back with the n928. Wp8 seems so limited than what I remember. I still love it and it will grow
 
i-mate was the only brand i ever seen with windows mobile back then you are lucky person if you had a phone with windows mobile on it :grin:
 
Jeez I never realized how old it looked haha. Then again I never really used much of Windows Mobile. Parts of the OS look modern and parts look very dated
 
Ohhh I had so many of those devices. Motorola MPX200, MPX220, Cingular 8125 (HTC Wizard), Cingular 8515 I think (TyTN), ATT Tilt (TyTN II Kaiser), and an HTC Touch Pro 2. Man that Touch Pro 2 was the absolute king of physical keyboards. I would gladly pay an extra $100 to get that thing frankensteined onto my Lumia 920. If HTC released an 8 Pro with global GSM and LTE in the US I just might leave Nokia (since they refuse to make physical high end Lumias with keyboards).

I just found my HTC touch diamond in a drawer yesterday, and connected it to a charger. Booted up like a champ, and even loaded WPC. If I could get that functionality with modern hardware and a streamlined interface, I'd be a happy man.

File Management! We need that back... heck, Microsoft should consider bringing the capabilities/options available in Windows RT to Windows Phone, that would be awesome.
 
For some reason I never considered Windows Mobile. I used Symbian and BlackBerry during Windows Mobile's heyday.

My only recollection of Windows Mobile is the Samsung Jack commercial with Ozzy Osbourne.

 
This is one of those that I owned. Versions 1 and 2.

It was released exclusively in the Philippines by Smart Communications as the Smart Amazing Phone. I called it 'Not so Smart, not so Amazing phone.'

I had those too (from Orange) and many other, later variants of it. Personally I loved them ;-)

Look, I found this picture in the internet:

Except of the last one I owned all of them. And also the C550 with dedicated music buttons.
 
All those smaller phones accepting full size SD and regular SIM cards. Yet the Lumia 1520 had to move to nanosim. Ah well it was done for progress I'm sure. I still wish we had some phones with the hardware keyboard like the Touch Pro 2 coming out in WP land.

I was a proud owner of a Samsung Omnia II with Windows Mobile 6.5. Touch Wiz suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucked! SBP Mobile shell was a savior. It had a 5mp camera and panoramic shot a good year before the iphone did. Free wifi tethering when Verizon was still unlimited data was awesome. MicroSDcard filled with music and a movie or two. Towards the end of my contract I eventually flashed an iPhone like shell on to it for simplicity sake and to deliberately show off its capabilities with iPhone users. Most of them couldn't understand why THEIR iPhone couldn't do those things.
 
I had a HTC P3300 ( Artemis ), i loved it..........but it wasnt BUT proof.
I sat on it :-/
With a tweak cabfile you could even have a bigger microSD in it ( normal 2 GB, with the tweak 8 GB ).
That was only six or seven years ago
Think of what it has become and what it will be over the same period of time.
 
Had a Cingular 8525... My first smartphone (had Nokias and Startacs before that). Thick beast!! I kinda miss it... It was a powerhouse in its day. MicroSD card slot, stylus, clickable thumb wheel, camera button, backlit keyboard, wifi, notification LEDs, email and browser quick keys... Other than being a brick it was awesome. If only MS had seen the iPhone revolution coming and adapted right away instead of fighting it...
