Just a century ago Miami was a swampy outpost of mosquito-tormented settlers. The arrival of the railroad in 1896 gave the city its first fixed land-link with the rest of the continent, and cleared the way for the Twenties property boom. In the Fifties, Miami Beach became a celebrity-filled resort area, just as thousands of Cubans fleeing the regime of Fidel Castro began arriving in mainland Miami. The Sixties and Seventies brought decline, and Miami's reputation in the Eighties as the vice capital of the USA was at least partly deserved.
The phone industry has been changing quicker and quicker every year. Now instead of home phone services more and more people are switching to cellular telephones services. Cell phones can do so much more then simply caller id and redial. Cell phones now have video capablities; some even have the ability to play television shows and music video for portable entertainment. Music can be downloaded or uploaded onto cellular telephones doing away with the mp3 and cd players of the not so recent past. There are so many new innovations being devolved for cellular telephones services and there�s no telling what will come out next.
