The Internet!. Its influence was far more varied and quicker!. I live and work in Latin America and have seen towns respond indifferently to telephones put in and go rapturously nuts over Internet cafes!. Telephones were a slight improvement over the telegraph!. The Internet is really so much more capable that you can not consider it an improvement of the telephone, it is a completely different animal!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

none, think about it, not only are they both great and effective, but both are verry effective as well as resourceful communicating devices, today u can instant message on the web, just like u'd talk on the phone, but then again on a phone, you have the web access available along with the phone, so u would think the phone, but it's really up to the person useing the item and what they want it for, like do they travel a lot, if so then a labtop or a phone would do if not then the other way around, see what i mean!. well hope i helped!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'd say the internet!. Although they both connect people, the internet connects in so many more ways than the phone does!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
