Maybe twenty years? I remember in 1992, when I knew little of these things, my boss had this mobile which resembled a brick! Mine is quite oldfashioned looking - when I was given it at Christmas '2002, I wasn't overjoyed and didn't expect to use it. However it was invaluable in times of crisis, but now lies fairly unused again.
Sat-navs are among the culprits (I don't even drive so don't own one!!), and microwave ovens etc. As someone said 'It doesn't matter how small the piece of technology is'.
