Motorola "Dyna TAC 8000x"--- the world's first Mobile Phone..
(By : Amitesh Singh)
In 1983 the Motorola DynaTAC 8000X received approval from the U.S. Federal Communications Commission and become the world's first commercial handheld cellular phone.
When it was made available for purchase just a few months later on March 6 1983 it ignited a demand for personal wireless communication. Everyone wanted to be the first to get their hands on these awesomely unwieldy portable analogue brain-fryers.
Motorola's DynaTAC 'Dynamic Adaptive Total Area Coverage' let you talk for 30 minutes, could go a full eight hours between charges, was 13 x 1.75 x 3.5 inches in dimension, boasted eight hours of standby time, took 10 hours to recharge, featured an LED display and memory to store thirty "dialing locations". Wooo.
Oh yes, the price was some $3,995 in 1983 dollars.
