Nokia 7110

I've wanted this absolutely classic phone ever since I saw the first Matrix film. About a decade later, when the Nokia 7110 has gained rarity value, it is much harder to find than in 1999. Even if you do track one down, it is rare to get one with a fully-functional slider, and a decent battery life. Ebay was the answer. Make sure, if it's not specified on their page, that you contact the seller and ask if the slide is working; ask if the phone is unlocked for all networks; ask if it comes with a charger etc; ask what the battery life is like.
As for the actual phone, the screen is ridiculously big, and the scroll dial in the middle is clearly a precursor to the Blackberry's central ball. You can use most of the applications with the slider up (ie: with the keypad covered). One thing to be aware of though: this is a very large phone. I was prepared for this, but if you don't know, the phone measures 5.5 inches in length (including ariel), 2 inches across (at its widest point), and is an inch think (at its thickest point). Just bear this in mind.
I absolutely love this phone. I can't get over answering it by opening the slider!
Happy eBaying,
Alex
