I have never owned a Nokia phone. They simply didn’t make anything that appealed to me. But when I started buying mobile phones, the name was synonymous with mobiles. Just about everyone (except me, it seems) had one. And now? Now it is surplus to Microsoft’s requirements. It’s a bit sad is all.

I have a very old very basic Nokia mobile. Doesn’t have internet and isn’t very smart at all. It cost me less than a tenner.
When Mrs D had some hospital appointments, I bought her one too. It wasn’t worth me driving home, so I’d drop her at the hospital and then wait up the road for her to phone me. Until then, she’d never had a use for one. In three visits it had paid for itself…
I put £10 credit on mine 2 years ago. It’s still got £3.25 on it. Mrs D’s had a tenner on it when I bought it back in March. It’s still got £9 left on it.
We don’t really have a use for a mobile but I have to have one because my bank insists on sending texts to it whenever I want to pay people. Frankly, it’s a nuisance. I don’t understand why 90% people really need one either.
But if there’s one thing certain, now Microsoft have bought Nokia mobile they’ll be crap. Microsoft is another word for TechDeath.
