Title: Telephone
Post by: john e. holliday on February 18, 2021, 08:35:05 PM

While playing around with the internet I seen this.  A prediction made in 1953 before I was even 12 years old. D>K

I know it is not model planes but think of the advancements that have been made .    H^^

Dick Tracy gave us the telephone on a wrist with a video screen in the 50's.  (So, who remembers Dick Tracy?  Then there was Lil Abner.)

For me, a telephone will always be a device connected by wires to other users.
