That is pretty amazing. And I am an ATT customer. Sad to think there was a day you had to wait to watch the movies and TV you wanted. RIP Phone Booths. They underestimated the importance of the smart phone.

These are great! My dad worked for a phone company in the 70s and 80s and I remember him telling me some of the stuff (similar to the stuff in this video) that we would be able to do one day and I didn't believe him lol. I specifically remember him telling me that one day we would be able to watch any episode of any tv show we wanted any time and it blew my mind. Kind of makes me excited to see what the next 20 years will bring.

This is going to make me sound really old, but I remember a high school teacher once telling us that we would just be able to swipe a card at the gas station and not have to go inside to pay.
My dad was in the military and they got internet and email in the early 80s before the rest of the world had any clue. I remember being very young and my dad trying to explain to me how he could "talk" to people in other parts of the country through his computer.
