As the technology of the World continues to advance at alarming rates, it seems that some of the old ways of doing things are coming to an end. Pay phones are silently dying off and being to sent to the “technology graveyard”. What ever happened to the art of carrying around a pocket of dimes and quarters to make those much needed phone calls? It seems that the corner pay phone will become a thing of the past, something we will tell our grandkids (or even kids) about and they will have hard time believing us. Technology has changed so much over the past 10-20 years and even more over the past 12-24 months! Now all you have to do is pull out your trusty iPhone<\/a> or Android and the entire World is at your fingertips!
