Those were monsters!! I fully believe it'd work, they sure don't make them like that anymore!

We used to say that if you dropped your Nokia, it was the FLOOR that would break XD
 
Nokias were tough to break.
So true, Z.

My sister wasn't careful with her 1100 (like, at all) and the only reason it doesn't work anymore is because the battery crapped out.

They sure were! Absolutely rugged phones!

I have mine tucked away somewhere, either in storage or in a drawer or something. I'm positive if I found it and a charger it would still work. Those things are built to last!

Yo, nice.

I actually found my grandpa's old Nokia tucked away on a radio box (no wonder we never knew where he put it) and it doesn't power on nor charge. Maybe the battery is too drained since reaching zero. Who knows.

Quite possible. It could also have corroded inside, it's possible a new battery would fix it, but often it's not worth investing in one just to fiddle around with old tech, lol.

I'm sitting on the verge there.

On the one hand, it would be nice to have it as a full-functioning phone again.

On the other, it has nothing of value on storage since my grandpa didn't know nor care about text messaging.
 
I really hate baseball right now
 
Who's the next MoTM? It's the second of October here :p
 

:(
Ah, yeah, watched that game.

I thought the O's were a little too eager to make pitching changes, but really, the Royals just executed a perfect game plan. Shutting down Henderson like that? No small fry. I always root for the O's whenever my Jays are out of the race, so this saddens me.
