It's a side note at most, but the history of technology at the end of the article is a little bit misleading as it lacks the dates for the technologies. It seems to list the most notable devices for each category. Some of them appeared several years after a technology became mainstream. Examples: The Nokia 3310 is from the end of 2000 but 2G mobile phones were already in everybody's hands by then, at least here in Italy. The boom started in 1997. I resisted until 1999, then my boss gave one to me because "I don't want to call [another guy with a mobile] to talk with you" :-) It was the Nokia 8110 (Neo's phone in The Matrix.) 3G/UMTS was launched in Europe in 2003, much before the first 3G capable iPhone (2008). The marketing word in 2003 for UMTS was UMTS. The first device was the NEC 606 [1], from the 3 mobile operator (Italy, UK and a number of other countries.) There were a number of popular 3G phones in the 5 years before the iPhone 3G. By the way, the NEC 6060 did video calls too. The screen was low resolution (not by the standards of the time) and the price was outrageous (4 times the voice calls?) Not a very popular feature and yet it was there.
