Happy Birthday GSM!

http://www.engadgetmobile.com[....]es-20-years-looks-for-20-more/

[quote=engadgetmobile.com]Reportedly, "15 phone firms signed an agreement to build mobile networks based on the Global System for Mobile (GSM) Communications" on this day in 1987, and while it took "12 years for the first billion mobile connections to be made," things have pretty much taken off since then. So here's to 20 incredibly fruitful years, GSM, you've earned it.[/quote]
