Found in the back of a cupboard, a Telecom Harrier Pocket PC running Windows Mobile 2003. Anyone collecting old phones? It powers up, but appears stuck in a boot loop. Free to anyone who wants it, otherwise e-waste.

It doesn't even work before the 3G shutdown! 😁

Great to see there are so many mobile phone collectors here.  I have a collection of ~150 from the pre-smart phone days, keen to put them on display somewhere in the future.

God damn that was the best OS for a cell phone. 

Android and iphone still hasnt caught up with even some of the basic features like a start menu and long tap to right click.
