Early Cell Phone Commercials

Hello friends of the 1980s and early 1990s! How about that Mikhail Gorbachev, what an absolute HAM! If you're like me, in between rocking out to your favorite Huey Lewis and the News cassettes and investing lots of money in Tab cola and Enron, you like to keep up with the latest in "cellular phone technology." Have you heard about it? You haven't?! What, are you living under a rock expelled from Mount St. Helens, which just exploded not so long ago?!? "Cell" (short for "cellular") phones allow you to make a call from anywhere to anywhere. You could get the latest from the Call the Coreys hotline while in an important business meeting in Czechoslovakia, or gossip about the latest episode of Family Ties with your good friend in South Yemen.

But don't take my word for it. Here are some commercials
