I had an N-Gage, the first phone I talked on in stereo using headphones (obviously).

It was probably the best portable device I ever had.

Musicplayer, console, stereo phone!!!

So much ahead of it's time it even makes a modern "smart" phones look wrong.

You could change battery yourself without tools.

Real buttons! How many misclicks do we count per day, probably a couple of billion?

When you stereo, do you mean different sounds for each ear? Or just having the same sound on each ear?

Wouldn't the former require two microphes?

True, same in both. So mono in both ears.

But it's still a game changer.
