    I'd think you guys would credit Rich Juzwiak for this video, considering a) he made it, and b) he's a contributor to Jezebel.

    Why exactly is the guy in "When A Stranger Calls" (0:26) calling someone and telling them that they can't get a cell phone signal?

    The correct term when answering someone on a telephonic device is "A-hoy-hoy".

    When you don't have any signal, use text. Then just as you click send, throw it up into the air as high as you can. It should work.*

    *No not really...

    @ripfire: I must agree with you. Even if you have half a bar, it will send out a text message.

    This meme has been done before - on Star Trek, with transporter interference.

    Next : "Damn !! can't update my Facebook status ! we're dead !"
    Or : "we'll track him down on Twitter, prepare your guns"

    That's Cinema 2.0, people.

    If my mobile ever dies or loses signal I'll start writing my will.

    ok, so every time you think you might end up in a situation like the above, you should always wear a belt with two cellphones from different providers, two portable chargers with AA batteries, a wifi media player with skype, a satphone and an emergency locator beacon.

    @aerospaceman: The sad part? I do in fact carry two cellphones and have still managed to find myself in situations where both lacked reception or battery power.

    @Rosa Golijan: Sad indeed, =P. Only time I can remember ever not having battery charge left was on a Wii hunt a few years back at the mall, and I needed a ride back home since it was raining. Long story short, I never forgot again.

    This plot device would have completely ruined Pulse if it didn't already suck horrible. And maybe these people should consider someone else than Motorola, Sanyo ,etc. Why Are they using dying brands anyway. They deserved it.
