*Driving with cellphones* Surely they could just prosecute and fine people who drive badly, whether it is because they are lighting and smoking a cigarette, tuning the radio, beating the children in the back seat or fiddling with their floozie?

Some of us grew up using RTs, and performing all sorts of simultaneous multifunctional activities while driving. Shaving, writing notes, reading, eating, drinking, throwing stuff out the window, watching nearby Babes. No problem!

PS: SurferM, I reckon Ramsey needs to be called for his Chicken Little false prophecies on stock prices and expectations on Asia in general and China in particular. Meanwhile, the chickens are hatching like crazy and running around madly. They were much easier to count and spend while they were still in the shell.

Michael,

Food For Thought From Wireless Week:

• According to CTIA President and CEO Tom Wheeler--who recently returned from a 10-day trade mission to Asia--Japan, Hong Kong and Thailand are about to ban the use of mobile phones in cars, unless the driver has a hands-free interface.
