People over 40: When did you *first* buy a cellphone? Anyone here among the customers of the first 1G cellphones circa 1983?

About 2000-2001. I recall having a pager in 1999 but not later

Interesting... were pagers ever common outside doctors and other on-call people?
I rented a pager for a month in 1993 when we were expecting my daughter to be born any day. I was at university in the UK and online most of the day but a pager was cheaper & easier than getting home internet for my wife
