A blogger in New York found a full page ad for a Radio Shack sale that ran back in February of 1991.  What's amazing is that there are 15 gadgets advertised in the flyer.  But right now in your pocket, your smart phone can perform almost all of those tasks.  Back then, you would have forked over about $3000 if you bought everything on the page (Around $5000 in today's money).

The only 2 items the iphone can't replace?  Fuzzbuster and 15" speakers.  Here's the complete price comparison from Steve Cichon at Trending Buffalo.
