Answer 2

Following the April 3, 1973, public demonstration, using a "brick"-like 30-ounce phone, Cooper started the 10-year process of bringing the portable cell phone to market. Motorola introduced the 16-ounce "DynaTAC" phone into commercial service in 1983, with each phone costing the consumer $3,500. It took seven additional years before there were a million subscribers in the United States. Today, there are more cellular subscribers than wireline phone subscribers in the world, with mobile phones weighing as little as 3 ounces.

Answer 3

Well the origonal consumer cellphone (known as the brick) could easily run upwards of $3000.00 Weigh around 1-2 lbs depending on battery size and had about an hour of talk time and about 8 hours of standby time you needed to keep them plugged in when not in use and the signal wasn't very strong. Cellular One was the origonal Cell Provider to the best of my knowledge, and origonally you paid something like $0.25 - $0.35 per minute for all calls, Mostly only celebrities and buisness people carried one.
