Default Can You Hear Me Now?

"FOUR prisoners in an El Salvador jail hid mobile phones, a phone charger and spare chips in their bowels so they could co-ordinate crimes from their cells, prison officials said today."



Well, these guys are in prison, so maybe Cingular's commercials showing more bars is appropriate. I'm pretty sure these guys aren't packing an HTC Universal, but you never know. Phone chargers? That simply cannot be comfortable. :shocked!: Could be worse, could be those British wall warts. Anyway, I'll have to admit that there are some people more devoted to their mobile device than I am.

Jay Leno said last night the last thing you'd want to hear after the phone rings is "Its for you"
