I will survive

AT&T "You WILL", ads from 1993-1994

Despite having been issued in 1993 and 1994, they predict technologies like iPad, the car GPS, wireless payment highways, video calling and many more forms of communication that are common today. You might not send faxes from your tablet, and might not do video conferencing with anyone from a phone booth, but many of these predictions are really accurate.

From a YouTube comment: I can't believe that with the exception of the tucking a baby in from a phone booth and maybe the carrying medical history in a wallet AT&T was incredibly accurate with what technology was going to look like in the near future. So cool!
