To celebrate the 19th anniversary of the release of the Nokia's classic handset, the 1011 [1] - the world's first commercially available GSM digital phone - the Finnish phone giant is holding an exhibition showcasing the various designs that made the company such a driving force during the mobile market's boom years.
The show, titled "People Made: Nokia products that changed the world", features designs from the early 'bricks' right the way up to the company's latest handset, the Nokia Lumia 800 [2], the one it hopes will bring back the glory days.
The exhibition also looks at how the company's products have shaped folk's lives.
So, if you fancy a blast from the past, put your nan on hold and set your GPS to find the Design Museum, London, SE1 [3]. The exhibition runs on the first floor until Wednesday, 2 November. ®
