For work, a Motorola Startac or whatever they were called, early 90s. And a selection of pagers, beepers. First one was just a beeper, then the ones you could get messages on.
First mobile I bought for myself / personal use, would be a Nokia 5146 (same handset as the 5110) in 98.

Siemens C25 was mine, I remember that it's coolest feature was than you could program it's ringtone...high tech stuff for '99. The ad campaign is here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsGbBlS-Xic
It took me the best part of an hour to program 'walk this way' into it...
I ended up 'losing' it from my combat trousers whilst asleep on a bus, after about 6 months of ownership. Next phone was a Nokia 8310 which made the Siemens look totally duff by comparison. 12 years on and my mate still has it (who I passed it on to once I upgraded in 2001)...

Wasn't my first but I'm using a nokia 8210 at the moment, tried to take a pic but the iPad I'm using won't let me? See my other post in this section.
This is partly why I sold my iphone 4 always playing up, love this little retro beauty and people always want a go on snake which can be a bit annoying!!!!
