Replaced the antenna with a metal one a blue led one and a black one and even a big thumb screw from the back of a PC case (for that industrial look) lol.
I absolutely loved it. Still have the organizer and like 3 extra batteries if anyone is interested. lol
p.
as a dumb phone that is instantly my favorite. Before verizon became verizon cellular 123 had it and my dad went through those like water. But it was ahead of its time clearly. One of the first phones to not only connect to yahoo messenger (in 1997!), but also sent text messaging on a limited capacity. The orange and black I will never forget...it was just epic!

As for my best phone...

I want to say the touch hd2 (it is a demon and my sister has it) but I can't. I will say the samsung i730. Not only was it my first winmo device, but for goodness sakes, it was just awesome. Thick, yes, but it did so much and it lasted its 2 year shelf life. And unfortunately, not many figured out how to put 6.0/6.1 on the device. But it was nothing like htc, which was buggy as ever at the time.

Worst phone I will say one many will look strange at me for but the htc touch. I hated the lack of keyboard, the small keys on the onscreen keyboard. And even with touchflo2d, I never felt at home with the device. Android was okay on it but otherwise, it was forgettable. Some irony is that I did use the device with android again and I was mildly impressed. But then I tried to type on it and I was frustrated. Shades of when I needed a keyboard for marketing a city program here. Wow...memories
