The end of an era
I remember with , erm , fondness (
) , my e808y
What a bold move that was - take a look at the launch / early range (e606 , e808 , e808y , e313 etc )
These phones (cosmetically & functionally) were a huge step backwards ( I actually have a *little* more respect for the e616v & e228 as they were, unlike there predecessors , usable ! other than the awful menu system of course )
They sold these phones as "revoloutionary" when realistically they were more "retro" than anything else
Shame really , as NEC should be one of the most capable forces on the planet - but for me , their name is tarnished forever , and I will have a little "Crap alert" flash up in my mind whenever I look at one of their products
I sincerely hope that they redeem themselves on day
I leave you with a picture of one of NEC's most cringeworthy products
