  2. I heard a local talk radio host say "I got a cell phone back in 1991, back when they first came out. so if they give people tumors, i'm dead" (said humorously)

    in anycase, check wikipedia.org. I bet they'ed have it down.

  3. Hi.Martin cooper invented the cell phone. Martin Cooper (born December 26, 1928 in Chicago, Illinois, USA) is a former Motorola vice president and division manager who in the 1970s led the team that developed the handheld mobile phone (as distinct from the car phone).Cooper is the CEO and founder of ArrayComm, a company that works on researching smart antenna technology and improving wireless networks, and was the corporate director of Research and Development for Motorola.


    In 1973, when Motorola installed a base station to handle the first public demonstration of a phone call over the cellular network, the company was trying to persuade the Federal Communications Commission to allocate frequency space to private companies for use in the emerging technology of cellular communications.
