Cellphones

Cellphones are portable communication devices. In the beginning they were known as mobile rigs and were used in vehicles and ambulances. Cellphones are also known as two-way radios.

The first rig installed was in 1910, in Mr Ericsson’s car. You could not dial your phone in the car, you had to stop at a place where a phone line was accessible. Mr Ericsson’s phone was first released in Sweden in 1956. Cellphones have improved a lot over the years and now you can call anyone at anytime or place.

Now most people have cellphones and you can also listen to music, take pictures and play games on them as well. We are very lucky that we can use cellphones for a lot of things and not have to stop at a place where phone lines are accessible.
