A Photo History of Cell Phones

by Terrence O'Brien on June 11, 2007 at 01:04 PM

The history of cell phones is a big and clunky one, as witnessed in a historical slideshow featured on MSN Tech & Gadgets (via PC World). From landmark dialers like the two-pound Motorola DynaTAC 8000X all the way up through to the iPhone, the list is a fun and sometimes embarrassing skip down memory lane. In addition to predecessors of great things to come, like the first Treo or BlackBerry, the list also includes famous flops, such as the N-Gage and Motorola ROKR.

Enjoy the many, many "I can't believe I actually owned one of those" moments.
