Why?  GPS works everywhere on the planet and has a map loaded onto it already.  Is it because you need electricity to power it?

Cameras that used film reel.
The black film reel came in a small silo shaped container and had little black tinted photos on the reel that the camera had taken.
The film reel had to be taken into a store to have photographs made from it and then picked up a few days later as the process of making photographs out of the film reel would take a few days.

Also, movies on VCR and the VCR player on a small cube shaped television with a double sided antenna that had to be fiddled with when the TV had bad reception and had the static screen with that cccchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh sound.

That is what springs to mind off the top of my head at the moment.

I don't think this is used these days, the test card used to come on when broardcasting for the day was over, and, was tuned into by TV technitions when they came to fix your telly (we use to hire, rather than buy TV's back then.

Also, after the national anthem (lol) was broardcast at the end of the days programming, the beeb would transmit a high pitched tone that would increase in volume to wake up those of us that would have fallen asleep in front of the TV.

^^ Lol, that clip takes me back!

Here's a pic of my oldest mobile phone. It's still on my desk today. I can power it up too, and the dtmf dialtones work, but of course I don't get any signal...

It's the nokia RD58. People had these monsters in their cars too, oh it looked so cool back then! :awesomenod:



Dangerous thread. It shows how old we are :lol: but don't worry, I was in high school back then, and didn't walk around with this guy. Our daddies had them so that the company could call them on their day off. An anomaly in those days.
