RE: Technology's Impact: The Advancement of the Mobile Phone

in LeoFinance • 2 days ago

When mobile phones first landed in Nigeria around the year 2000, one could use his two salaries to get the line. And then work for another three months to acquire the handset 🤣🤣

And the service problem was spotty at best.

That is how technology operates: it is clunky and expensive to start, available only to the wealthy. Over time, the service (or product) improves and prices drop.

At some point, it becomes ubitquitous.
