I worked for a company in Anaheim CA that sold cell phones somewhere around 1990 ....and I remember my first week I sold about five 3 WATT mobile phones which included car kit and installation.... from $1,850 to $2,400. I know you could buy car phones wih installations for as low as about $1,000 at that time (but not from this company) --- In the many months I only sold cell phones to CEO's, sales people for Black and Decker, and one architect and a couple guys who owned construction companies....zero doctors, zero real estate agents, or anyone else. I used to get asked by police all the time why I had a pager and a cell phone. I think only 1% of people in the USA at that time had cell phones...around that time....the Motorola flip phone (which is huge compared to the cell phones today) came out and I think people were pre-ordering them for about $3,500 each.
