NOKIA 1100: Tribute To The Legend

When I was creating this blog, I was thinking of names like SymbianS60 Blog, Symbian Era, etc. But then I thought about other phones, which are not Symbian. There are some other phones that stand out in crowd. And today, I'd be writing about the 'More' in the name 'Symbian And More'.

It is scratched, bruised, fallen many times, yet rises again like a true gladiator, like a Phoenix rises from the Ashes. This is no gadget with any advanced technology, talking about smartphones would be alien to this phone. It is like a stone age man in today's multimedia ruled world. Yet without color screen or even polyphonic ring tones, it still manages to be a Legend.

Legend is the only title that suits this Nokia, which is being used since the past 5 yrs, has clocked more than 284 hours on its life timer and is still going strong without any hesitation.

This is the epitome of reliability and user friendliness. The small size (106mm x 46mm x 20mm) and light weight (86gm) make it extremely handy and pocketable. And the silicon keypad and rubberised finish of the body make it usable in any climatic condition, without loosing grip.

No matter how advance phone you use, there is something sweet about this phone. It's simple and it means business. It just calls, answers, sends SMS, receives SMS, just goes on and on and still stands tall as if it was never meant to sleep, never meant to rest.

Drop it. Alas! Keypad out, battery out, back cover-front cover are separate. No issues, just put it all back together and it will again very willingly greet you with the Nokia start up jingle. Do that with an N95 and you will regret having butter fingers.

Such is the power of this phone. As if it was a very determined person, more than just plastic and internal circuits. Someone that would never say die.
