The picture above is one thing, but if you hit the jump you can see a bunch more pics of vintage cellphones. Out here we’ll just say… we’ve sure come a long way.

DesignBoom did a pretty good job documenting the exhibit and they have a couple more pictures we didn’t include here. So give them a visit if you want to see them.
