[edit] Features
The Nokia 7110 was the first Mobile Phone to have a WAP Browser (Wireless Application Protocol) or Microbrowser.
The Nokia 7110 has a spring-loaded cover concealing the keypad. This is inspired by the film The Matrix in which Neo used a Nokia 8110 modified by the film's production crew to have such a cover.[3][4]
