A mobile phone or mobile (also called cellphone and handphone) is an electronic device used for mobile telecommunications (mobile telephony, text messaging or data transmission) over a cellular network of specialized base stations known as cell sites. Mobile phones differ from cordless telephones, which only offer telephony service within a limited range, e.g. within a home or an office, through a fixed line and a base station owned by the subscriber and also from satellite phones and radio telephones. As opposed to a radio telephone, a cell phone offers full duplex communication, automatised calling to and paging from a public land mobile network (PLMN), and handoff (handover) during a phone call when the user moves from one cell (base station coverage area) to another. Most current cell phones connect to a cellular network consisting of switching points and base stations (cell sites) owned by a mobile network operator. In addition to the standard voice function, current mobile phones may support many additional services, and accessories, such as SMS for text messaging, email, packet switching for access to the Internet, gaming, Bluetooth, infrared, camera with video recorder and MMS for sending and receiving photos and video, MP3 player, radio and GPS.
The International Telecommunication Union estimated that mobile cellular subscriptions worldwide would reach approximately 4.6 billion by the end of 2009. Mobile phones have gained increased importance in the sector of Information and communication technologies for development in the 2000s and have effectively started to reach the bottom of the economic pyramid.

That the real innovation in mobile telephony lies not in the eagerly anticipated latest iPhone models but rather in mini-factories in the Chinese hi-tech hub, Shenzhen (where iPhones too are produced), is amply demonstrated by the group DISNOVATION.ORG.
In collaboration with researcher Clément Renaud and Hongyuan Qu, the artists Nicolas Maigret and Maria Roszkowska collected strikingly designed mobile phones in Shenzhen, which took such fantastic forms as strawberries or cars, or had impressive technological features. The Powerbank phone, for instance, runs up to three SIM cards in parallel and has an integrated battery that can charge other devices. Others have an in-built lighter or electric razor. This market is geared not so much to the Western middle-classes as to the rural populations of Africa or inland China. Set up as a typical sales stand, 'Shanzhai Archeology' presents the product range of these mini-companies, which fuse creativity, copy/piracy/remix-ventures and self-taught skills to develop new products in a matter of weeks. However, Shanzhai (Chinese: pirate) culture is under threat - not so much from miserable working conditions as from the Chinese government's endeavours to clean up the country's counterfeiter reputation. Yet, although often dissed for poor quality, the devices on show here, given their extraordinary qualities and style, pose a serious challenge to the West's hyper-standardised approach to technology and to the built-in obsolescence paraded under the guise of innovation.

The housing accommodations of Radio Kootwijk arose as a result of the building of a shortwave transmitter site with the same name, starting in 1918. The transmitters played an important role in the 20th century as a communication facility between the Netherlands and its then colony of Dutch East Indies. In 1923 Dutch PTT started trans-oceanic telegraphy using a longwave transmitter (a 400KW high frequency alternator) from the German Telefunken company under the callsign PCG, in the 24 kHz and 48 kHz. By 1925 the longwave transmitter was changed by a shortwave tube based, electronic transmitter which had a much better performance due to the better propagation of shortwaves. With this new technology, in 1928 a radio-telephonic connection was established. At the end of World War II, the German occupying forces blew up the transmitter.
The city was the capital of Brazil for nearly two centuries, from 1763 to 1815 during the Portuguese colonial era, 1815 to 1821 as the capital of the United Kingdom of Portugal, Brazil and Algarves, and from 1822 to 1960 as an independent nation. Rio is nicknamed the Cidade Maravilhosa or "Marvelous City."
Rio de Janeiro represents the second largest GDP in the country [5] (and 30th largest in the world [6]), estimated at about 140 billion reais (IBGE/2007), and is the headquarters of two major Brazilian companies – Petrobras and Vale, and major oil companies and telephony in Brazil, besides the largest conglomerate of media and communications companies in Latin America, the Globo Organizations. The home of many universities and institutes, it is the second largest center of research and development in Brazil, accounting for 17% of national scientific production – according to 2005 data.[7]
Rio de Janeiro is the most visited city in the southern hemisphere and is known for its natural settings, carnival celebrations, samba, Bossa Nova, balneario beaches[8] such as Copacabana, Ipanema and Leblon. Some of the most famous landmarks in addition to the beaches include the giant statue of Christ the Redeemer ('Cristo Redentor') atop Corcovado mountain, named one of the New Seven Wonders of the World; Sugarloaf mountain (Pão de Açúcar) with its cable car; the Sambódromo, a permanent grandstand-lined parade avenue which is used during Carnival; and Maracanã stadium, one of the world's largest football stadiums.
The tower is ASR 1275846, standing on a hill in French Lick, Indiana, with the recursive address "French Lick Tower." It was built in 2010, and is owned by Smithville Telephone, Inc., a family owned company of long standing that also specializes in fiber optic service to homes. I don't see anything that yells "telephony" at me here. All the cellular providers are on three towers on higher sites across town. But on it is W269BU, a translator on 101.9 FM of WFIU/103.7, of Bloomington.
This appears to be the over-the-air antenna for picking up WFIU on 103.7 for the transmitting antenna below to translate out on 101.9.

Mobile telephony arrived in Burkina Faso in 1996 through the national operator ONATEL, which created the TELMOB branch on this occasion. It will then face competition from two other operators, Celtel and Télécel, the first of which has since become Zain, Airtel, and Orange. In the interest of a stronger identity and to better face the competition, TELMOB developed a new, more aggressive branding in the early 2010s using pink and yellow as the primary colours. In 2021, mobile phone services are switching to Moov Africa colours with blue and orange tones.
La téléphonie mobile est arrivée au Burkina Faso en 1996 premièrement par l'opérateur national ONATEL qui a créé la branche TELMOB à cette occasion. Il sera ensuite concurrencé par deux autres opérateurs Celtel puis Télécel le premier étant entretemps devenu Zain, Airtel puis actuellement Orange. Dans le souci d'une identité plus forte et pour mieux faire face à la concurrence, TELMOB développe un nouveau branding plus agressif au début des années 2010 avec l'utilisation du rose et du jaune pour principales couleurs. En 2021, les services de téléphonie mobile passent aux couleurs de Moov Africa avec des tons bleus et orange.
Mine are the bottom row, R's are the top row. My row has 3 earlier mobiles missing. Interestingly, my phones are getting larger as I use them more for internet access rather that phones, and R's are getting smaller!

•How can I reduce my telephone bill?
This special report is focused on saving your company the money and pain of making a poor purchasing decision when it comes to telecommunications. And that certainly is great place to start. I want to help you plug the leaks so that you are not needlessly sending your hard earned profits over to your phone company.
However I really want to go one step further. What if your telecommunications could be a profit centre to your business rather than just an expense item? What if I could find ways and strategies of actually bringing in more business to you and adding extra profit to your bottom line?
Saving my clients’ money is something I really love to do. But being able to help my clients MAKE more sales and profit is what really ‘cranks my handle’ and gets me excited!
