Set my time machine for 1989.

That's about $1425 these days.  And so CONVENIENT. :D

That is pretty hilarious. I am reminded of a similar feeling when I watched a Miami Vice rerun recently. They had state of the art cellular phones, too. Huge clunky things that once looked uber-cool and now bring down the entire "fashion forward" air of the show.

I grew up in the 80s, and remember this commercial. It's so weird seeing it now given what cell phones we have today.

"Now, Floyd, how did you break your finger?"

"The phone landed on it, Mommy."

Smaller phones, about the same price tag today ($799) for high end phone with no contract.

Now they are just a literal computers in your purse or pocket.
