You are bringing back some good memories of that wonderful phone on sharing my bad memory!

N900 Phone only got 600 MHz processor & 256mb of Ram. But feels like Pocket me rocket hai.
After that came N9 with superior processor and 1gb ram but still lack that N900 keyboard feel

What is the use of collecting partially or fully dead electronics? I gave away my partially working vs4121 to a local shopkeeper who used it for a few days and sent it to his village home i guess. I threw away boxes of electronics like old Akai/ Panasonic radios, double deck casette systems etc because there's no spares available to service them. The only regret i have is not being able to repair the items and make them work like new.

Planned obsolescence at its best. Spare parts not being available really hurts
 
I miss my technics sl1210. Got it cheap and sold it cheap. Nowadays their prices have gone up since they're discontinued. Had to sell it because it was too heavy and I could carry only so much with me on my flight

Edifier DA500 pro. Horrible 5.1 set. Other than this no instant regrets except I think I bought too many pmps that I don't use anymore.
 
Commodore 64?

I still have my Sinclair ZX Spectrum+ 128k from around 1986 in a cupboard somewhere!

Those were the days!
@raksrules you should start a separate thread for interesting stuff people have collected and refuse to dispose.

I regret Selling my PS3 Slim with Move stuff. I sold it and got a GPU which was a good buy and lasted long but I still wish I could get the GPU without selling the PS3. Now I use RPCS3 for the games I forgot to play on it or didn't know about.
