    @timak: So you're solution is for us to spend $400 bucks on another machine? I'm not sure where you're from but this universe is not based on Benjamin Button Economics.

    @Zlevee: It's a Simpsons reference. The Movementarians try to recruit Homer, and give his a detailed description of the free seminar at their compound this weekend. And Homer keeps asking them questions. The title of this article is about as detailed as detailed gets, so I wrote this post. I know exactly how you feel.

    @takashimiike 7 aka Dl33t: It's MORE than a phone. So you can go into airplane mode and play games. Apple thinks of everything.

    I'm guessing the "I can't call 911 if I need to" argument goes out the window b/c there's no reception underground? As long as you have an emergency phone to the engineer, there's really no reason to have a phone. Also, IIRC, the Madrid bombing was triggered by cell phones, so this seems to have a dual purpose.

    "a transparent conductive film is placed over windows to stop electronic signals from sensitive equipment "


    Yeah all calls would have to go 'out the window' in this case...

    @andrewkfromaz: Surprisingly, people can make decisions on their own. They don't necessarily need someone deciding how they feel, and speaking out on their behalf.

    @andrewkfromaz: I sure as hell would. Do you think I want to listen to some idiot chatter and make drug deals on their phone, or talk about their kid, or listen to someone's mp3 player?


    I'm all for people listening to their own music. I just don't want to have to listen to your music while you listen to it. If people were generally more considerate of them disturbing others, this wouldn't be an issue. However most people are just self-centered asses who don't even care when they're blocking the damn isle in the grocer with their trolley.
