History of Cell Phones: Introduction
We all remember getting our first cell phone, but not many of us really know the history behind the cell phone and the major players involved in bringing this technology to the general public. Starting back in 1908, we can trace the US Patent 887,357 for a wireless telephone to Nathan B. Stubblefield who lived in Murray, Kentucky. While the term wireless telephone sounds similar to what we have come to know as cell phones, his intended use was for a patent to “cave radio” telephones.
