The very first slider?
So, imagine the distant year 1997:
- Bill Clinton took office as president for a second term;
- sales of the first DVD discs and players started in the USA;
- Intel officially announced the Pentium II microprocessor;
- Yandex.Ru search engine was announced ...
Caution traffic!
Sony has released a phone CM-DX1000
.Wikipedia says:
Слайдер имеет две части, но они при этом не закреплены на одной оси, а расположены в параллельных плоскостях и соединены с помощью специального механизма, позволяющего им сдвигаться («скользить») друг относительно друга в этих плоскостях (обычно только в одном направлении).And if you look at it all from the point of view of philosophy, then it can be attributed to the ancestors of all the sliders.
So, here he is - handsome! Rarity!
It makes no sense to bother with technical characteristics, so I will briefly dwell on the main points.
The communication standard is GSM 900. My old Kyivstar card still works without problems on this device.
By the way, regarding the location of the SIM card: the SIM card compartment is located on the upper end of the phone, which does not require the removal of the battery:
Another usability plus (IMHO) is the charging stand. During charging, the LED shines red, and after charging is green. The charging time is about 2 hours.
Well, since we're talking about the time, then:
Opening hours of standby time, stated by the manufacturer - up to 70 hours; talk time: up to 10 hours. This is ensured by a battery capacity ( ! ) Of 1350 mAh Li-Ion. I got it used 6 years ago, then he successfully held a charge of 2 days. Now is the day.
If you remove the cover and take out the battery, you can see the following picture:
On the left inside the housing you can see a retractable (manually) antenna, which when extended, doubles the length of the phone.
Speaking of sizes.
Phone dimensions : dimensions - 150 x 45 x 32 mm; weight - 235 grams (without battery).
Screen - graphic, contains 4 lines of 16 characters.
The upper right button is programmed to quickly call any one subscriber from the address book.
on the left side is a very ergonomic volume control:
Phone memory - 100 numbers.
Allows you to receive / send SMS (although, given the antiquity, there can be no talk of Russian)
There is a built-in modem , data is transmitted at a speed of 9600 bps. However, I can’t check this function due to the lack of cable.
Here is such a rarity. Roads as a memory - the first tube. Yes, and it works ...
And at the very end - the most interesting. For those who are not in the know. You ask - where is the slider? And I will answer: the speaker goes half its size up. A kind of hardware keyboard lock (as evidenced by the image of the handset with a key at the top center of the screen) and automatic lifting of the handset for incoming calls.
PS I will not give it in good hands - I need it myself!
PPS Sorry for the quality of the photos - the camera is also rare;)
