It was probably one of the most exciting purchases for me in the age of smartphones. What we knew and owned were Nokia cell phones that were wonderful to play Snake with. But what we wanted since January 9, 2007 were smartphones. A certain Steve Jobs introduced the 1st generation iPhone on that day. But the time was not yet ripe for me and my wallet. So I had to wait...

...wait for something I could afford. Something that would excite me as much as the iPhone. And it came, the Google Phone built by HTC. The first smartphone on Google's Android platform. It was different. It was great. And it was the introduction to something new and unknown. Something that we consider normal today.

That was a quick look back at my very first smartphone. Looking at the picture, I have to say that I still like it. A masterpiece!
