The Sony Marsbar - one
of the first 'mobile phones'
The Sony Marsbar or CM-H333

With the power button second up on the right.  Small LCD screen and flip-up earpiece to end and make calls.  Just three speed dials, one ringtone to wow your friends with.  A toy phone really; due to it's battery power in my opinion. And, don't forget to put up the aerial

The Nokia 2110 - 'the
businessman's phone'
The superbly designed
2110 / 2110i from Nokia
