Victor Surerus says the $2,700 he paid for his first cellphone 30 years ago was worth every penny.
It was July 1985 and Surerus says he needed the phone to help run his business as a travelling funeral director out of Peterborough, Ont. The phone attached to an aerial in his car and came with its own carrying bag.
