    My problem isn't not seeing what's in front of me. Years of "working" on the computer while watching sports seems to have allowed me to develop an ocular bifocal (eyebifocal?).


    My problem is the cars coming from my left and right while I'm happily listening to Adam Ant and sending emails and crossing the street.


    So screw one camera facing forward. I want two cameras pointing left and right so that I don't get mowed down by a Fresh Direct truck or a taxi.

    ...Except I don't hold my BB right in front of my face like an 80-year-old woman whom forgot her reading glasses.


    All I would get is a sweet PIP of the ground, possibly including my feet or belly.

    Also, "John Mahoney" was one of the made up name I used to make prank calls as a kid

    @Chewbenator: Did he always get in trouble for the prank calls that SJRNWT was making?

    it's kinda funny, but the little picture would only be useful if it was facing forward... at which point your view around the cell phone would warn you about what's coming.


    I mean, the problem with hitting things while reading or texting is that you're looking down to see your gadget. Thus, your vid is gonna be pointed at the ground or slightly forward.


    I suppose if you had a camera that could point forward?


    Or, you know. Look up occasionally.

    @Aristeia:


    what they need is a camera on the TOP of the phone.
