Cell Phones- How they got Started

We have been using Cell phones for years now, but does anyone know what the first one was like? I wanted a cell phone ever since i was at least nine years old. Though I am sure I probably was not born when the first one came out into the market. That is how old Cell Phones are, but the fact of the matter is from the first kind of phone to all the many ones there are now, no one can put there is down for two seconds. I am a victim of this, my phone is in my hand 24-7, just like everyone else who has one. The cell phone is not just a word we call the device we use to contact people as you can read about, by clicking the link. The thought that anyone could have come up with such a device to talk to someone no matter how far away they are is incredible. How these people even came up with such an idea sounds crazy or at least I'm sure the public did when they first brought it up. People such as Samuel Morse, who introduced the concept of wireless contection. Many others such as Martin Cooper. Who was raised in Chicago, went to the Institute of Technology in Illinois and got his degree in electrical engineering. Worked on the first portable handheld police radio. The first to make a cell phone using a cellular phone. The first cell phone was created in 1973. The first cell phone comercail didnt come out till 1989 as seen blow. Ever since we have created the first cell phone our lives changed and soon companys started, creating new and more cellphones. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgBcGDO9WFk
