I’m in my 30s and was an adult when mobile telephony was introduced in India in the mid-90s. One abiding memory of the time - besides the ridiculously high tariffs - was the size of the mobile phones. You could carry a brick in one hand and a phone in another and unless you looked, you wouldn’t know the difference. I also remember some of RIM’s early, clunky BlackBerry smartphones and when I first opened the box that RIM’s new 9360 Curve came in, I was struck by how far the BlackBerry range had come—something similar to how far mobile phones have come from the quite-literal bricks of mid-90s.
