In this week’s Mobility Technology and Marketing discussion, we talk about what wireless technology has had the greatest impact on society. When thinking about the history of mobility and wireless technology, I think about the invention of the mobile phone. According to this week’s videos, the first cellular phone call ever made was from just outside of Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois to Germany in 1983. It is amazing to think about the advancements in mobile technology over the past three decades.
Thirty years ago, the mobile phone was big and bulky, in the early stages they were in cases and in automobiles. Technology has evolved from those ancient relics to the flip phone, and now the smartphone. Our mobile phones of today have revolutionized the way we live our everyday lives. Within a few screen touches, we can make phone calls, send text messages, check email, read news articles, view photos and videos, and listen to music. The list of possibilities go on and on. It’s exciting to see what technology will bring regarding advancements in mobile technology.
