Re: I Hate Cell Phones!
-----------------------------------
My pet hate when it comes to mobile phones is the incessantly stupid drive by the manufacturers to add more and more useless features to a device that has only one stated purpose: to interrupt your peace at the most inopportune moment possible.

I DON'T NEED AN MP3 PLAYER/TV/VIDEO PLAYER/GPS TRACKER/CAMERA/GAMES MACHINE/ALARM-CLOCK/WEB-BROWSER/WORD PROCESSOR/WAFFLE-IRON/MINE DETCTOR/PIZZA CUTTER WHEN I'M ON THE @#$!!#$# PHONE!

Seriously, who's half-baked idea was it to put a teeny-tiny useless screen on a phone and then try to sell you movies you can barely see at crappy frame-rates with tinny sounds?

I JUST WANT A PHONE? GEDDIT?

Oh, and an added aggravation is dealing with mobiles that are locked to the one service provider... all OK unless you want to move to another country... I've got TWO mobiles - one of which was quite expensive - I can't use now... except as a glorified alarm-clock.

Grrrrr. Arrrrgh.
