Mobile Phones?

[alien8]

/me hates cell phones!!

I used to sell the damn things, and I noticed something odd about them. It would appear to me that the second that a normally intelligent person touches one, they instantly become stupid.

I can't count the number of times that I've had a customer walk back into my store, incredibly pissed off, saying that their brand new phone doesn't work. I'd pull it out of the box, press the power button and find out that, in fact, it worked great. RTFM people - YOU NEED TO TURN IT ON FIRST!!

Having said that, yes, I do have a mobile phone. A Nokia 6190 - the last good phone ever made.
