| VoiceComm

In our industry it’s hard to fathom consumers without reasonably current smartphone technology in their pockets. The reality is, some still use older obsolete smartphones while others have clung to their so-called “simple” phones. In fact, in certain cultural subsets, such as the much maligned “hipster” group, simple phones are making a comeback. Nothing is cooler than irony and obsolescence, we presume.
