It is in the sense that no girl will fuck you if you use it.
You know using birth control implies there's some fucking, right?

It's the ultimate birth control - by removing the copulation it increases it's effectiveness to 100%!

Natural birth control.

The Kin Two looks pretty cool though

UI video.
UI looks dumb and too much centered around a thin concep and idea.
-
i bet it looks like a can of dip in your pocket
-
windows mobile is vastly inferior to blackberry's os
-
Good thing it's discontinued then. Still waiting on something modern from RIM.
-
i wish theyd bring back the old plastic phones that were as big as a brick, phones are way too chintzy today, blackberries included
-
not KEN?
disappointing.
-
the blackberry OS is terrible.
-
your mom is terrible
in bed
-

-
It's not for anyone on this board. It's for 14 year olds.

But I have nostalgia for those phones :(

I bet most people here are too young to remember when phones actually looked like that.
I feel so fucking old. :(

My grandma's house had only those phones when I was a kid.

yeah, I have weird nostalgia for old phones. Something about having to put effort into the phone call, both with dialing and talking. I used to have one of those in my kitchen and it was always hell balancing between the phone and the stove across the room. Nowadays my home phone has speaker phone and caller id and memory redial, and if I don't answer that, chances are they'd just try my mobile next. Things are getting a bit too convenient.
the cellphone in the OP seems fine. 9 out of 10 phones these days are a giant screen with one or more buttons, so it's at least interesting to see something different (for the wrong reasons). the actual phones and software seem aimed at social people and there wasn't one mention of spending hours playing Bookworm on it = pass.

I had to drive my father to the sports equipment store on Sunday and my cell phone rang, so I had him answer it (I was driving) and having to explain to him how a touch screen works was like teaching pre-school :lol

The modern knockoffs of these phones are so light, you can't beat anyone with them. They are made of thin plastic and barely have any electronics in them. The one's from the 70's and 80's were fucking beastly and weighed about 7 pounds.

i remember dropping one on my foot and thinking i'd broken my toe
-
Dial phones like the green one will no doubt come back into fashion some day. Probably among hipsters.

Well, at least we know what J Allard has been up to.

almost there :teehee

Hipsters don't even use phones, they use electrical telegraphs.
I heard Brooklyn is even thinking about re-instituting the Pony Express.
-
Electric telegraphs are far too convenient and mainstream, if you want real indie cred you should be using homing pigeons.

No, just Williamsburg.

Cellphones from the 90's were a disaster.
I remember 2Pac showing off with a cellphone that's bigger than my refrigerator..
One of these things...

So gangsta back in the time. Check out the cool adapter. :lol

Car phones always seemed pretty badass to me, it's so sad that cell phones made them obsolete so quickly. :'(

Obviously the other Windows 7 phones
this isn't a W7 phone
