That's exactly what I have been pointing out at every innovation conference or meeting where I speak. Where is the innovation? Where is the technology? We think that what we use today is advanced and works better, but it's just not true.

A lot of it is about price and ease of adoption. My mother used a video phone at the worlds fair in the 60s. I’m fact, she loved it so much she kept on waiting in line to do it over and over again. She only started using one again 50 years later to see her grandkids over FaceTime. And the quality of the experience after 50 years? Well I believe the cameras used in the worlds fair setup were closed circuit broadcast grade tv cameras, so I think the quality was much better (albeit in color.)

The cost and ease of use however? Already in something she owned and a single button to answer the call.
