MOBIL AGE HISTORY
What are the things you will definitely forget to take with you? Keys? Valet? When was the last time you had no mobile phone in your pocket? You must have gone back for it. Were you annoyed or happy that it did not ring all day long? Didn't you feel that you missed something?
Have you ever lost your mobile? How many entries with names of old friends, business partners, and messages of pictures did you lose with your phone? Have you ever been pondering about how many years you have been so attached to this small item? There are people in Hungary who have been familiar with mobile phones, these small objects, or rather the size of a brick at the beginning, for seventeen years now. Some exceptional ones knew about the feeling in the USA in the 1930s. At the beginning, mobile phones seemed like unattainable status symbols for the average man. But today, we cannot even leave the house without them. In the meantime, a generation familiar with mobiles, a mobile generation, grew up. They have memories full of emotions about the mobiles. They believe that these memories are worth keeping.
Can we say then that there is a mobile history? The mobile generations will say yes, so we set up an exhibition.
The Mobil Age Fund was established to make the relics we collected in Hungary and across the world important mile stones to preserve them for the future generations.
This time we present a fraction of the complete collection. We selected mobile milestones that opened up new ways in the history of mobile communication. The visitors will find their own favourite mobiles; will discover the history of the manufacturers and network operators.
Have a good time, enjoy the footages, and watch a short film on the history of mobile phones.
