[HeryckHGarcia]

God, the background song is soooo soothing, it's delicious!!! It makes me wanna buy it :P

[SIGNALSTAT]

yea they were very affordable back then only 1.85 off peak and 2.00 per minute on peak.

[smithraymond09029]

"Honey, I'm running late" : the real reason God invented the cell phone.

[IveGotNothinToSay]

The music is disturbingly calming.

[TheBelieverAmen]

[kenfo0]

i miss the good old days when I could go to the grocery store w/o some jackass rambling on a cell phone about whether to get 2%, 1%, or skim milk, cuz ya know BLAHBLAHF-INGBLAH. SHUT UP! You are NOT interesting. You CAN make a simple decision without having a freaking conference call.

[SouthwesternEagle]

*sigh* the good old days back in the South....

Anyone who lived in Texas in the mid 1990s would know what I'm talking about.

[girlstorm09]

wow....cell phone commercials were so boring then....todays are better imo:P

[UToobInc]

[macroevolve]

0:28

He had his blinkers on in a muddy back road...you know tons of traffic will be there soon. :D

[obviouslygregg]

a wide array of colors, from black to gray and anything in between!

[kissbutterkiss]

so that shop at 0:15 is like one a those vodafone store where you may have selections of cellphones.

[absdilsey]

Dont bolt that crap to my dash...

[dougd1015]

Man I miss those things, I mean they were huge!

Its like a walkie-talkie with a giant antenna and flip moth piece.

[Zoomer30]

It needs to be banned, I sware if I ever get run into by some ahole who is yammering on thier phone insted of driving the dam car, they will need an enema to get it back.

[kramnrublaw]

@Zoomer30 In Kansas city they made it illegal to talk and drive if you are under 21 LOL!! People were so confused why they didn't ban all ages. I know why they didn't. Because all of those fat cat bureaucrats talk and drive and didn't want to look like hypocrites if they were pulled over breaking a law that they made. Everyone who creates these laws is over 21. Coincidence? Nope.

[silntdoogood]

I remember getting a cell installed, took two days, and any time we answered a call with the CB on it blew the fuse and we lost both. good times...

[yoshickento]

Man i can't believe that you have to get a cell phone "Installed"

[GameDude2008]

@yoshickento I know right. Thank god for the 2st century

[GTPrecordZ]

[windowlicker752]

Flaming homo sooners had cell phones? You must be kidding.

[spazrhino00]

[BlackLatinoKid91]

[teedot]

[Arabman666]

That's a sweet deal!

[MattLewisComedy]

Awesome! I need one of those things, that way I can return my pages!!

[tnizzle53]

[sludgewar]

I like how they encouraged drivers to use phones back in the day, now it's becoming almost illegal at least in Canada.

[holm79]

illegal now in Denmark (1 jan).. calculating... . . . ,

danish kr to canadian dollar..bip.. bip.... its around a 150 doller fine, for getting caught driving while talking mobile.

Even a handfree its not allowed..

Some wiseguy told the danish media, a 20 year old speaking on the phone is paying as much attention to the road, as a 70 year old just driving. Compared to reflexes and stuff! Then the politicans came in and said its now illegal for safety reasons!

[frednora]

These phones... they are just a fad.

[coolgeek123]

And now they have 3G touch screens with mobile TV, high speed internet, pictures, movies, calculator, email, text, weather, and a navigation system that can fit in the palm of your hand. Damn, now think of the cell phones they will have 15-20 years from now!

[thecoolconejoman]

which is a pointless peace of plastic and wiring. Yah go ahead and by it becuase they told you to, i rather buy a rifle.

[joker0187]

i'd rather go to a strip club and get some head

[GameDude2008]

@coolgeek123 20 years from now we will get cell phone implants in our brains, so we wont even have to dail. Just think of whoever you want to call, and BAM

[bocanada81]

@GameDude2008 I agree with you, but stead in the brain, in the ass hole lol

[CoolConejo]

@coolgeek123 Don't forget how you are monitered 24/7 and phone able to hear your conversations when phone is off, also is able to get into your "persona' / Public self published online Record of your self and all persons in Familair interest and Relations with you. What a cool idea guys, No need to be arressted to have a Public record on you, WHY DO that?! when You can Make one yourself!!! haha Yeah!!!! lol. Nubs.

[rockingryder]

@coolgeek123 don't forget mp3 players on phones now man and cameras

[dadsoldtapes]

@rockingryder Haha back when this commercial came out you might as well as have duct taped your portable cassette player to your phone.

[jose65536]

Cell phones were very big and expensive at the time.

[ghosty121]

wait wait wait Did she say "Everyone that drives should consider ARMING a cellphone"?

[WOWItsSilicaGel]

I think she said "owning a cellphone".

[Anoneeemouse]

My dad had a carphone that he modded to have a battery back in like the mid80s...The thing was like the size of a unabridged library dictionary.

It was mobile...if you were in the US Infantry.

[Hamstertabbygirll]
