I met him once when I was at Motorola when I was learning to repair two way radios about 24 years ago.

Although Martin doesn't mention the DROID until after the 30 minute mark, I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing!!!

Wow, that is one seriously articulate man! I really learned a lot about cell phone history today. Thanks!

How ironic that AT&T was the first to make a foray into cell phone technology and, today, their service is the worst of all major providers.

BTW, I saw it using the brilliant Phandroid app for Android: Phandroid News v1.0.4 Application for Android | News & Weather
