I only have my past 3 phones now. Wish I still had my first phone from 1988. A Motorola 1500, I think. Was a hefty 5+ pounder, with a cord and handset. The base unit fit into a fanny pack, and I could just talk on the handset coming out of the fanny pack. People had no idea wtf was going on, as few knew about cell phones back then. lol

There was a guy I met at some trainings who had a 'cellphone' too, but it was in a case about 3 times the size of a normal briefcase. My next phone after that literally fit in my pocket, although about 8 inches tall. Fun times.
