Everyone keeps … Everyone keeps saying it’s huge. Well, it isn’t compared to every other phone from the 80’s. Just the mere fact you could carry a phone with you was a novelty at best. Trust me, people we be saying the same thing about the IPhone in 25 years.
my dad had that … my dad had that phone, and my brother and I play with it al the time, Later my father had the flip phone that the numbers on the screen looks like a calculator. Cellphones with antena, know that is hilarious.
The aura of having … The aura of having a cell phone over 20 years really changed.
I had one of these 20 years ago and so did a few other people I know have them. Everyone that walked around with these was called a geek or nerd or and so on.

Haha, this … Haha, this commercial is pretty artistic. It could almost be a Jeep ad though. Look at the marketing, you’re a top executive hotshot at your company, you’re the because you can afford a giant brick phone worth more in weight than gold. Having said brick phone will score you super models!
