34 years before the ubiquitous smart phone! Anyone wishing to canonize Steve Jobs should remember Isaac Newton's letter to Robert Hooke: "If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants."

Olorin, I think it's to do with the definition of how they transmitted over airwaves, yours was radio waves, mobiles use something different.

We had mobile phones in Sweden in 1956. Of course, they were not handheld but mounted in cars but still mobile. The answer given here is wrong!
