How far we've come

Enter the "Wayback Machine" and revisit 1983. The Chiat/Day New York office had been open for three years. The Mac was a year away from its debut. And in 1983, Motorola introduced the first commercial portable cellular phone. It only weighed two pounds, had enough battery life for a whole 30 minutes of talk time! The cost? A bargain at $3,995 (calling plan not included.)

Comments

Remember when we opened the Toronto office and this was our only phone?
