The birth of the mobile phone and PCI payment

The BBC today released several archived clips from Tomorrow's World (their long running future technology program).

I was so taken with a couple of these clips I thought i would post them.

The first one from 1979 is a new technology called a 'radio mobile telephone' sending 'digital packet data' that I felt the need to post it. See the video here.... We have come a long way but in some regards full circle with this 'analog' dial app for the iPhone.

The second video is of the first PCI type payment system from 1969. Observations of vulnerabilities please form an orderly queue. See the video here...
