No network: Can we live without our mobile phones?
Background information
Mobile phones seem to be a ubiquitous feature of modern life. Although the telephone was invented in 1876, it was not until the 1940s that the first mobile phones came into being. In the late 1970s cellular phones appeared and by the 1980s to have a mobile became a symbol of success. By the 1990s mobiles were commonplace and by the 2000s the majority of the population in some countries had one. For some people, to have the latest mobile phone is a fashion.
