In the wireless and phone industries, things are always changing. There’s always a new phone coming out that has “never-before-seen” features and technology, and companies are always trying to outdo each other while copy-catting each other’s work in a race to the top to be the best cell phone company in the world.

In the wireless industry, there always seem to be new ways to use your smartphone no matter where you are, and now there are internet routers that are powered by cell towers rather than an ethernet cable. The possibilities are endless in the wireless and phone industries, and it’s hard to predict what new technology will emerge next.

But in one instance in the 1960s, a telephone company commercial manager by the name of Frederick Huntsman made a prediction in the Mansfield News Journal about telephones that would change the wireless industry forever. Huntsman predicted that people would be able to carry their phones in their pockets one day: something absolutely unheard of back then. At the time that Huntsman said this, there was no such thing as a cell phone, though rotary-style phones were slowly starting to disappear in favor of phones that now had push buttons to type in the phone number of the person you wanted to call. This was considered a big innovation. The technology back then was nowhere close to what we have today, but Huntsman’s analysis of how technology was moving led him to believe that phones would eventually be portable and small enough to hold in your hand.

Huntsman had that cell phones would be common one day, and he’s been proved right. Cell phones are now part of most people’s day-to-day lives, and it’s hard to imagine a world without them.
