Payphones probably seem pretty obsolete now that almost everyone has a cell phone, but they actually serve a surprising purpose. 

Payphone technician Pete Izzo Jr. maintains more than 3,000 payphones owned by CBS Outdoor in New York City. Izzo is part of a team that made the phones owned by CBS WiFi enabled. 

The infrastructure of the phones will have a huge effect on public access to information and the way that we communicate.
