THE CELL PHONE!!!
YESTERDAY THE CELLPHONE TURNED 40!!!!!!!
Mobile phones, and their promise of unprecedented connectivity, have altered the way we live. And it all started 40 years ago today.
That's when Martin Cooper, a vice president at Motorola, stepped onto a New York City sidewalk and made the first known cellphone call in history. And, whether you thank him or blame him, we haven't stopped talking, texting and tweeting since.
In this image from 1972, a model demonstrates a "portable radio-telephone" by Pye Telecommunications at a London exhibition called "Communications Today, Tomorrow and the Future."
Has Cell phone done more harm than good, have your say!
