Welcome to Episode 3 of 0G, A History of Forgotten Phones! 0G is a limited-run podcast where we look back at how weird and wonderful smartphones were back in the days before iOS and Android took over and your only option became a rectangular slab running one or the other.


0G is hosted by two people who were there: Christie Pitts (now at Backstage Capital), who started her career selling phones at a Verizon store, and Peter Rojas (now at Betaworks Ventures), founder of Gizmodo, Engadget, and gdgt.


In Episode 3 we take a look at the phones of 2006, including the Treo 700w, LG Chocolate, Sony Ericsson W810i Walkman phone, Nokia N93, and the BlackBerry Pearl 8100
