It matters not about IMEI blocking. The little s#!tbags who steal mobile phones *do not care* that the phones they have stolen are useless to them. It's enough for them to know that you have been deprived of your property.
While we're reminiscing, my first *digital* mobile was a Nokia 5110, certainly not a bad handset; though I had owned an analogue mobile (branded "People's Phone", who were taken over by Vodafone) since 1995.
