    Yep, looking at your forum signature none of that social media was around last century when most of us were starting out. Geez, mobile phones didn't even show up until about 1987 and cost about $3,000 or more when 1st launched.

    The first commercial mobile phone service was in the US in 1947 (AT&T ), guess you wouldn't have put it in your pocket though

    Hi Dave, the first ones here filled an entire brief case and next came the half Besser Block sized Motorola which was my first mobile phone. Amazing how we had to get them smaller only to now see them grow in size again to accommodate larger screens.
