first mp 3 player even though a lot of people still think it was Siemens
The first mp3 phone wasn't an SE that's for sure! The Samsung M100 was in 2000 and the Siemens SL42 in 2001, The HPM-10 I believe was in 2002?
Moto - Startac, V3,
Siemens - SL10, S11
Nokia - 5210, 7650
Rim - Dominate the whole push email market
HTC - First company to introduce Windows mobile on a phone (Tanager) opened up the whole world to new possibilities like syncing properly.

i believe you are correct - moto, siemens, ericsson. the rest don't even come close.
And as was to be expected.... where are they now?
Siemens almost bancrupt
Moto almost bancrupt
SE resigned a lot of ppl this year... so I can presume...
erm, i didn't say SE. SE are far from innovate. i said ericsson. big difference, different company.
there are some things that EMS06 got wrong. for example, vibration alert is an innovation of moto and siemens really did the first mp3 capable phone. moto also have the first candybar, first clamshell, first twin speakers and stereo sound, quadband, first to introduce bass boost and spatial effects, and many others to their credit.

@fatreg
I didn't mention SE BUT Ericsson. Ericsson did come up with a prototype mp3 player way before both Samsung or Siemens but they deemed it not ready for the market thus never really put it into production.
@Brightspark
Are you sure it was Moto with vibrate? I know Ericsson did that as an attachment to the phone first and not in built.

yup. moto has the patent here:
http://www.freepatentsonline.com/4794392.html
"With the StarTac launch, a mobile phone became a truly personal device, which is why it grabbed such feature as the vibrating alert (trademark for this feature - VibroCall). Motorola, as well as other makers, was widely employing this technology in pagers, yet up until that moment it had never debuted on a mobile phone."
