The story of Verizon Wireless began in April 2000. In the 15 years since, mobile technology has advanced at a spectacular pace and to a wondrous place. Close your eyes and try to remember. We were excited to merely make mobile voice calls, then in awe to send a text-only black and white message that took multiple button clicks for a single letter. It was a beautiful but blurry dream when we could snap tiny grainy photos from a clamshell phone.
Today, we live in a wireless world gleaming with astounding devices, capabilities and even more magical possibilities. Steaming HD video, connected cars, smart cities, helping the those with disabilities navigate more independently, the possibilities are endless. And what helped us to skip so swiftly along this path? A great and powerful network. The strength, reliability and rapid evolution of the Verizon network and the unstoppable innovation that has occurred in the past 15 years helped bring to life all these wonderful wireless things.
