At the end of the last century, somewhere between 97-99 probably. I became fully equipped with a Motorola 501 Startac and a Psion Series 5mx. My whole world changed. I’d used a mandarin clamshell iBook and a “rabbit” phone previously (maybe an NEC?) but the Motorola and Psion were the first I bought for myself.
