#htcblueangel — Public Fediverse posts

I just realized that I've had my @xdadevelopers account for almost 18 years!

I originally registered an account on #XDADevelopers because it was the go-to forum for #hacking & #modding 1st gen #smartphones like the #HTCBlueAngel (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTC_Blue_Angel) and #HTCWizard (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTC_Wizard), which were my 1st and 2nd smartphones respectively, back in the early-mid #noughties.

They ran #WindowsMobile, and they featured a slide-out #QWERTY keyboard for relatively fast and precise thumb-typing, a #ResistiveTouchscreen w/ built-in #stylus for taking handwritten notes and drawing pictures, and a rear-facing camera for shooting digital photos on the go. They even came with a mobile version of the #MicrosoftOffice suite, and you could synchronize your documents, spreadsheets, calendar, and contacts with your laptop or desktop by simply dropping the phone into its #USB cradle.

This was all several years before #iPhone and #Android came along. Dang, now I feel even older than usual. 😅
