There are over 6.5 billion cellphones and fixed lines on earth. They carry the collective burden of every phone call and text message from one end of the world to the other, which is a far cry from what mankind had a mere century ago. The modern day man, who has lived through the golden age of communication, is blind to the evolution of the telephone from a rare luxury to what it is at present-an inseparable aspect of everyday life that has made the world a much smaller place compared to the days when the fastest means of communication was a carrier pigeon. In 1984, Motorola released the first phone available on open market, weighing 1.75 pounds and with a price tag the equivalent of your mortgage. Compared to today’s smartphones, the original Motorola handset is the equivalent of a horse-drawn carriage in a race with a Ferrari, and the difference is only truly appreciable when you consider how far phones have come from 1753, when Charles Morrison proposed the idea that electricity could be used one day to transmit messages between two parties based on the idea of a telegraph. In fact, Alexander Graham Bell's success in developing the telephone was a direct result of his efforts to improve the telegraph. On 1875, Alexander Graham Bell discovered he could hear interference over a bare wire while testing a revolutionary technique called the harmonic telegraph. The sound was that of a vibrating clock spring, accidentally caught by the receivers, and it marked the beginning of a powerful push by scientists such as Thomas Edison and Nicola Tesla to develop a more practical means of long distance communication. However, the telephone’s true expansion occurred once the military and navy threw their hats into the ring. Effective and speedy communication has always been an integral aspect of warfare and global security. In fact, one of the most famous legends of the ancient world concern Battle of Marathon during the first Persian invasion
