\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Nokia is about to revive a piece of computing history and a technology icon: the<\/strong> new <\/strong>Nokia 3310<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Godfather is back and is expected to be unveiled at Mobile World Congress<\/a> (MWC), the world\u2019s biggest mobile trade show, in Barcelona at the end of February.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The long-awaited comeback is certainly thrilling most of us; after all, who wouldn\u2019t enjoy the hardiness, the long-life battery and the snakes. We can throw it, spill anything over it , even defend ourselves with it in a fight and the phone would still emerge unscathed!<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been awhile since the phone was at the top of the mobile heap. First released in 2000, the phone sold 126 million units worldwide, making it the best-selling mobile phone. The Wolverine was then retired in 2005, but now it\u2019s coming back!<\/p>\n

The new 3310 <\/strong>is now expected to cost \u20ac59 (\u00a350).<\/p>\n

But as much as the news is making us jump with joy, I doubt this will be the case for the other phone brands. Although, it\u2019s been more than 10 years since the phone was retired, we can still all remember it. I can\u2019t predict our behaviour, but this makes one wonder. So let\u2019s try to develop some hypotheses: Are we leaning towards augmented reality as a stand-out but also a must-have feature in our phones or are we getting tired of this fancy technology and we just think it\u2019s time for us to go back to basics?
