Are you ready to feel nostalgic? The iconic Nokia 3310 turned 20 on Sept 1, which was the day the device was first announced, according to a report by Wired.

In a Reuters report about its announcement back in 2000, the device was described as an “entry level” phone targeted at young people or those looking to replace the older 3210 (introduced in 1999, it was touted as the first device to be pre-loaded with the Composer software which let users compose their own monotone ringtones).
