			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What do you do when you&#8217;ve got great brand heritage but the times are changing?<strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Re-imagine, re-introduce or remix your product.</strong></p>
<p>Trainer companies have long found new ways to benefit from nostalgia &#8211; see <a href="http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=Reebok+Classic&amp;m=text" target="_blank">Reebok Classics</a> or <a href="http://www.flickr.com/search/?w=all&amp;q=converse+all-stars&amp;m=text">Converse all-stars</a> &#8211; and long-defunct video games are <a href="http://toucharcade.com/2009/04/01/namcos-galaga-remix-heading-to-the-app-store/" target="_blank">making a comeback</a> on new platforms.</p>

<p>I wonder how long it will be before mobile phone manufacturers do something with <a href="http://www.vintagemobilephones.com/page1.aspx" target="_blank">classic handsets</a>?</p>
<p>Up to now phones have been getting smaller, techier and more serious. Maybe there&#8217;s opportunity in doing something different &#8211; I can imagine Shoreditch fashionistas slipping their SIM card into a second, old-skool phone before a night out.</p>
<p><em>As a brand opportunity, heritage in mobiles is one thing Nokia and Motorola have over Apple. </em></p>
