ah, those were the days!

i remember my brother used to have the 4th phone along, the PF768 i think it is. It had a rancid 1 line display, but was a quality phone!

Yep When I purchased a (red) GF788 long time ago, all my collegues where amazed by its small size ! I just loved the flip-cover. Later I bought the SH888 because of the built-in infrared modem...
Since then I have progressed through a Nokia 8210 to the T68 I have right now.
Since I started once with the Sony CMD-1000 (pop-up), you can say I am now back where it all started: Sony-Ericsson

whoa...a great ericsson collector ey...
is that a Rose white T39(farthest right)? why is its antenna is colored black. My Rose white T39's antenna is gray.

Jowi... no big thing to switch antenna on a T39

wonder why calls that color "rose white"... it's more like beige

Well, when some of those phones got out Nokia was still only making boots
the 337 ie...

but all those phones are just the ones that work 1900 MHz I see, for instanse I see no T10, T18, 788, 688 and so on... 388...

Jowi, I don't think that it is actually black, but just the way the light from the camera flash has reflected. My Rose White (aka CREAM!) is grey, just like yours.

Yes those are 1900 mhz phone they are my friends' here in the state. And the t39 antenna is not the stock one it's been replaced with a pullout stem antenna, that was around for the t28/9

Posted by ojosch
Where can I get one of those pull-out antennas for my T39? I want better reception.

@xerx
gf788 was my 1st phone
i really loved it, made nokia users run and hide

@ojosch
boy, have you been diggin deep
i had 1 for t28, should work for t39, only that it's black

Posted by iyiinsan
I own like... 9 of them

But the GSM 900 ones!

PS: I'm now using the T28 (plus some other ericsson phones like t68i and t65) and T28 is one of the best phones in the world, if you know its capabilities and how to use it...

My first phone was GA628, then A1018, T10, T28, T29, T65 and now i have my T68i and the only thing i can say:
they where best!
