Why did we all have the BT Cellnet one? Was it really cheap?

I'm sure it was even BOGOF at one point!

AA batteries!

This was mine by BT Cellnet! I remember it being so cool as you could put your birthdate in to it and it would predict how your day was going to be like e.g:

love 5 stars! happyness 4 stars, work 2 stars!

I had a sagem, cant find a pic! I LOVED that it a red light that flashed when you got a text!!

Also there was no address book so you had to remember everyones phone numbers!

Oh and vodafone didn't charge for text for over 4 months!

WIN!

I think it was in dixons and I worked in currys and you needed a flyer to get one for free so I went down and they told me as I was staff I wasnt allowed one! got someone else to buy it for me lol

I had this in silver! It had Old MacDonald as a ringtone AND the last 4 digits of the number were my date of birth. Best first phone ever.

My first one was a motorola, cant remember the exact model but I think it may have been the same one as the OP, it looked like that anyhows.

I also remember having a cellnet later on.
