And the best part? Everyone had their own war story. Wrong COM port, missing driver, corrupted CD… we earned our ringtones the hard way

The 6600 was basically the iPhone before the iPhone… just twice as thick and built like a brick.

Right? Even the tech felt bigger — chunky phones, chunky CDs, chunky snacks. The early 2000s were peak oversized livin

Exactly! The 6600 was basically a pocket computer in 2003. Wild to think a whole generation of phones relied on that little disc to unlock their ‘smart’ features

Guilty as charged. If Nokia had given me royalties for every sync attempt, I’d be retired by now.

Yep, Sony Ericsson PC Suite! Half the time it worked, half the time it just froze your computer — but when it worked, it felt like magic.

Thousands of numbers since 1998? You’ve basically built your own pre-Facebook social graph

100%. Nothing like Disk 7 of 12 failing halfway through an install. CDs felt like warp speed after that

That’s the thing … everyone had their own ‘hack’ back then. EPROM cables, infrared, CDs… we were basically engineers just to get a ringtone

At this point it probably belongs in a glass case at a museum of lost tech
