On a related off-topic note, I was surprised to learn that actress Hedy 
Lamarr, regarded by some as "the most beautiful [woman] ever to appear 
in films", had a hand in wireless phones.

 From Wikipedia,
"Her most significant technological contribution was her co-invention, 
together with composer George Antheil, of an early technique for spread 
spectrum communications and frequency hopping, which paved the way for 
today's wireless communications."
