The vacuum tube didn't reach its full maturity until Lee De Forest came along a decade later. De Forest invented something he called the "audion." Not only did it force current to move in a single direction, but it could be used to increase the current along the way.

The first transistor was invented at Bell Laboratories on December 16, ... Prior to the transistor the only alternative to its current regulation and switching functions (TRANSfer resISTOR) was the vacuum tube, which could only be miniaturized to a certain extent, and wasted a lot of energy in the form of heat.
