Did
you know that the first public call placed on a portable cell
phone was made 35 years ago?
Although that call was placed on a phone that weighed almost 3
pounds, today's cell phones are much smaller and lighter.
The iPhone, for example, weighs less than 5 ounces! A
continuing trend in technology is miniaturization -- the
creation of increasingly smaller scales for products and
devices. Can you name any other devices people use that
have been miniaturized?
