Few people have used cell phones
for ten years already.


Not sure about that. The mobile phone was an icon of the 'Yuppie' era

(along
with the Filofax, BMW, Rolex, etc.) That was mid 1980s.

I'm pretty sure we one of the early 'next generation' phones (digital) in
about 1990.


Just checked, it One2One launched in 1993, and there were other systems
before that.

Hard to believe, I don't recall a time when we weren't plagued by the
'mobile'.
