There's a bit of a backstory to this.. I'm kind of a huge fan of Handheld PCs, which are pretty much not produced anymore nowadays. They ran Windows CE, a completely custom version of Windows that has a UI similar to Windows 95.
As a little kid already I was amazed by those tiny PCs, that was in the 90s when laptops used to be huge. Naturally I wanted one, and the Handheld PC of my dreams was the last one HP ever made, the Jornada 720.
It features a 206Mhz processor, Windows CE 3.0, a whopping 32MB of internal storage/RAM, PC-Card slot, CF slot and the most amazing little keyboard ever.
Since I have a new phone I can tether internet with this thing and actually use it everywhere which is soooo cool.
Also I made a background which this submission is about.

Oh man, yes! The one I particularly liked was the Toshiba Libretto (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toshiba_Libretto) which was especially great because they ran Win95 and later XP, so you could use standard apps rather than having the WinCE restriction. You could also play Doom/Quake on them back in the day, when those were new. :D
There's also a Linux distro for this one :) https://www.jlime.com
Hey :D
This is not the HP 620lx you gave me at FC 2010, it's a HP Jornada 720. Sadly it's very hard to use the 620, since it's using serial port, doesn't work with Windows 7 and finding Wifi Drivers is hard. I still mainstain a small Software archive for Windows CE 2.0 though!
Thanks again though! If only I could get my HP 320lx back I sold many years ago (stupid of me), then I would have 3 Generations of Windows CE next to each other :)

Wow, looks cool! But why, oldie thingies have much cooler design than modern thingies ?
Actually this is an encrypter, not a phone, but I think it's very good designed :
