Weve come a long way from the first cell phones. The

idea isnt a new one in fact in 1947 Douglas H.

Ring and W. Rae Young, Bell Labs engineers, proposed

hexagonal cells for mobile phones.

The genuine launch of the first portable phones was in

the early 80s. At that time only the very wealthy or

well to do individuals had them.

They had been really huge and heavy. Not one thing to be

carried in your pant pocket or purse, this was

one thing that weighed a few pounds.

As large as they had been although, they didnt have a clear

sound and using them was a hassle. At 1st, all were

designed for permanent installation in autos

otherwise identified as a vehicle telephone or mobile marketing business .

Some of these bulky units were soon converted for use

as transportable phones the size of a briefcase.

Motorola introduced the initial genuinely portable, handheld

phone.

The 1st digital cellular telephone call was produced in the

United States in 1990. They shrank considerably.

Cell phones used to be just analog phones, with the

sole purpose of providing the consumer with the

capability of producing and receiving voice calls although

on the road.

As technologies has advanced so have the capabilities of

the mobile marketing business. They dont just send and get calls

now they are capable of text messaging, emailing,

taking images and video clips.

The sizes have gotten smaller but their abilities have

enhanced.

As we continue to advance, so will the skills of

cell phones. In the next handful of years, cell telephone

networks will move data at many megabits per

second, and will coexist with WiMax, Wi-Fi, and, for

Television, DVB-H or MediaFLO.
