Telephones from the Past!

Posted on September 17, 2009

I was looking at this picture and it dawned upon me that I have used such phones when I was growing up! And now they end up in antique sale! The way time changes.

    We need to preserve photos of our "latest" mobile phones- someone will need them to publish in blogposts few decades later
