Technology moves fast, Sue. It would be easy to get left behind.

 

[bushseeker]

Moves quicker and quicker
Mobile phones havnt been out long and now smart phones are updated s few times a year.
Tvs stayed almost the same for many years
Color was the only real change
Then its plasma then its plasma hd 1080 then its lcd then bang its led then its 3d and now its I think 24k all in a few years

Indeed the old adage Bigger faster stronger has been surpassed could it now be Smaller faster and flimsier
But it is all innovation I mean where are the new things now I mean people over 40? have probably seen the fastest changes in history But also the last to see really new things

And cheaper, too, in many cases H2. I bought a laser printer the other day for $139. It prints, scans, faxes, and copies.

Sorry forgot cheaper I remember my first "Portable" B&W television was more than a weeks wages for me at the time But it was worth it I mean with the help of a friend I could carry it to another room Coz it was Portable

I think it was about $200 my pay check was about $110

I hated mobiles for a long time I remember my first yuppie (Probably Geraldtons only yuppie) used to waltz into the Freemasons hotel with his "Mobile" it was the size of a brick but worse still he used to lug in a ruddy great battery pack
Then await Very important calls Or make momentous calls " Excuse me thats my mobile ringing I must take this"

Wouldn't he have called it a cell phone in those days?

 

[Happy2]

How was I supposed to recall that yoda? Didn't I mention it was in a pub?
It's just that as I remember we had a home phone and then a mobile phone I just assumed cell was the US version
