In front of a bedazzled New York crowd, Mr. Cooper made history in 1973 when he initiated the very first cell phone call to a rival at AT&T. Working for Motorola, Mr. Cooper launched an event that would become the corner stone of today's society.

In 1983, ten short years later, Mr. Cooper yet again made history by introducing a 16 ounce Motorola cell phone. Seven years later, in 1990, there were over one million users of cell phones.

This was then! Today, there are more cell phone subscribers than land phone subscribers and cell phones weigh in at around 3 ounces and less.

From Dad to Mom, to our teenagers, families throughout the world have embraced this new technology and it is now not uncommon to see our younger kids (less than 10 years old) receive their own cell phones!

But with the advantages of the cell phone, come into place a whole range of risks as the use of cell phones and chat lines on the internet have combined to place our kids at risk from predators who will try to talk to them by phone with a view to see them in person!

Online predators pose an all together too familiar threat, widely reported in our media today, and throughout the nation, concerned parents worry that their own kids might fall prey to these characters. Whilst a kid should never be allowed to be contacted by an adult unless specifically authorized by their parents, parents should indeed immediately alert the local police and even the police if it does happen.

But cell companies do not willingly give out information which they consider private, and it can indeed be very difficult for anyone to be traced back using a cell phone number. What can parents do then?

The good news is that once you know which service or website you can confidently access, this information need not cost you an arm and a leg. Indeed you can do a reverse cell phone search for all of $14.95 which barely covers the cost of a movie and pop corn if your kid comes to you for pocket money.

Is there really such a service as Reverse Cell Phone lookup? Isn't this information public and available to all? Check out independent reports and try an Reverse Cell Phone search for yourself!
