Just go to the forum index,pic a catagory,then click the last page at the bottom.
In this case i went to general,clicked on '482' and you will see the start of the general forums

If you want to know Esato's true birthday (in my opinion), it was on August 7th, 2001, which you can see here, where you can see that Laffen has joined as the first member. There ya go!
Posted by masseur
I suppose another date that could be considered is when Esato was obviously considered as a serious possibility, i.e. when www.esato.com was first registered as a domain. that was 09-aug-2000
maybe thats the true birth date of Esato?
Posted by Jim
He registered the domain name with tucows on 09-aug-2000, didn't know that tucows do that

So sony ericsson started when? 2k2? Which means Esato can't actually mean only take a sony ericsson. Or am i wrong?
Posted by rdnymllnsktr
No, 2001, actually.
Posted by masseur
it was April 24th 2001 that Sony and Ericsson announced an intention to join together and October 1st 2001 that the operation actually started
Posted by Jim
so esato means something else then, unless he knew something before everybody else
Posted by BOSSHOGG
Heh, so Esato.com was registered in 2000?
Posted by masseur
well... without wishing to start up the whole "what does Esato mean" again, since we already have several threads for that, I will just quote a couple of posts from those threads....
laffen did say...

but tranquil did say...

gathering we had here in Norway this spring. It's just a 5 letter word that is easy to say in most languages and just happened to be avalable as a .com domain at the time. Where he got it from as still a unanswered question.
so in my opinion tranquil was right with what he said about it originally meaning nothing, but since "Only take a Sony Ericsson" fits, it was adopted by laffen

esato started with the first GPRS enabled ericsson phones in mind, r520 and the t39. At first you didn't have to register to post, but I've been on this board for quite a while. still don't have 500 posts, so I'm a bit slow....
@ superunknown - I thought you had me beat by 8 days, but then I noticed, I was on this board almost a year before you!

Posted by Jim
