    I just installed the ability to post and play videos and I'd like to test it out so.....let's get a thread going!


    Go to YouTube and find old TV commercials for cellular phones and service.

    Copy the URL code either from the video (it displays after the video plays) or your browser's address bar. Do not copy the one that says embed.

    Post one video per post. The older the better. :evillaugh

    :popcorn:

    This one is not a carrier, or that old. But very historical for the industry. :)
