Technical Throw Back Thursday: Motorola StarTac 70

Technical Plate's Throw Back Thursday: Motorola StarTac 75

Who remembers this dinobot? Man I remember when this phone first hit the streets. It was a complete must have for all hip hop heads and business men. The Motorola StarTac 75 was the beast of the Cellular world, like the Samsung Note Edge is today. The only thing is this phone didn't have a camera nor did as much as Smart Phones do today. I remember when I had my StarTac, I had just came back for Korea on a 1 year tour of duty and that was the first thing that came to me, after the phone being out for 2 to 3 years. Check the specs on this Dino-bot and tell me that back then you would not have been let down.
