    the problem with people with mobiles phones is a lot of the stuff they are reading on texts is crap, every second of the day revolves around gossip or other rubbish that isn't really important.
    walk in a a shopping mall and watch the brainless ZOMBIES , looking at their phones and texting, you have to dodge them as they are in a trance and will run into you.
    Go to the pictures, as soon as the session is over, watch the zombies come out ,straight on to their phones.
    supermarkets, texting as they leave checkout and before they even get into the car.
    They don't have to worry about big brother , as they volunteer every minute of their mundane lives to each other.
    Have a look at school kids, spend all day with each other then at home time, they need to get onto the mobile to debrief each other.
    People need to get their lives back.
    social networking?

    Hand free kits are very cheap and it is not an excuse not to have one.
    Not actually true. Try to get a hard wired kit these days, particularly one that has an external antenna for marginal areas. It's almost impossible, at any price.

    It seems that most kits available these days are bluetooth devices, don't get me started on the problems of the re-trans delay involved in activating and voice quality of bluetooth.

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    Sometimes I tend to think the same way, but then I remember the movie, "happy feet", when the old fart penguins are on top of the hill, trying to drown out the dancing feet of the young ones down below. It's called progress, and we either move with it, and find ways to cope, or spend the rest of our old fart lives mumbling in our beards. BTW., I'm a young 63. Bob
    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking
