Most Influential Phones Ever On USCC

Well, I started a thread in the general forum about the most influential phones of the decade and its growing in popularity. So I decided to do one for US Cellular, not only for the last decade but for the expanse of their existence. I am really interested to see what answers I get here as USCC has been around for a really long time and I am curious as to the past trends of the company and company's customers (as well as current). So, since I have a limited knowledge of the company's past, here is my short list of phones I thought were influential to the company and the company's customers. Hopefully you can add to it... and thanks for all answers!!!

Motorola RAZR V3m (really popular phone on our carrier)

Blackberry 8830 (was the sta...

the most influential/popular phone ever on uscc were the old nokia models

remember? think back like 9 years ago, which was freshman year for me...EVERYONE has this phone. This was about the time the cell phone fad exploded with the middleschool/highschool age group. and what a great phone for it? you could change faceplates, change the color of the keys, buy accessories for the antenna, it was incredibly durable...etc..

i still get customers asking for them

the rokr, like stated came out at us cellular first.
Let me guess you will say

"the black berry storm!!!" WOOOO..

Considering its not a blackberry phone its a phone with black berry software that verizon teamed up and paid 40 million dollars to have blackberry put the OS on it, after they said no for 20 million dollars..
Blackberry is on its works for its own smart phone thats touch that they will release on the market to the other carriers and most likely not sign on with verizon, because verizon probably will say no because they have their update infested blackberry storm, that locks you out as its updated, so you cant even call even in an emergency, gotta wait for that update.

what are the odds right? pretty good when you...

The Analog Star Tac has to be on this list. It brought us away from the 500 lb, I have to carry this in a backpack, my battery lasts for one call monster into the age of the smaller handsets. Then the digital version that would not only allow you to have the battery that was on the flip, but would allow you to clip on an extended on on the back of the phone that DOUBLED you talk time!! Weeee!
