Answer:

new cellphone.

Explanation:

ASCII. See ASCII table here: "104 73 110 84" = "hInT" and "110 69 119 67 101 108 76 112 72 111 78 101" = "nEwCelLpHoNe".

And yes, I am quick :-) I liked the style of the hint, but the puzzle was way too easy IMO.

    $\begingroup$ More than that it's easy, the issue is that the encoding is absolutely standard and the first thing many people check. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @xnor and pretty distinctive - only containing numbers between 60 and 120 is one of the biggest telltale signs you can get :) $\endgroup$
