About this shirt: DynaTAC 8000X

This shirt features the fourth of the 12 Heroes, the DynaTAC 8000X! This was the first commercial portable phone and was released by Motorola in 1983.

Despite battery life of only 30 minutes of talk time this device –  somewhat affectionately known as the brick phone – was the beginning of the decades long evolution to the smartphones we have today.  Another gadget that just had to be part of the lineup of the Handheld Heroes!
