Is your mobile phone part of the conspiricy?

Post by The Great Unbearded One »

ROFL! I was watching The Comedy Store on channel 5 and one of the guys was just creasing me up with this statement:

T-Mobile.....do you know what that is? TALIBAN MOBILE! It's a conspiricy!!!

So I ask...which network are you?

I have no need of a cell phone. I have this microchip implanted in my should that allows real time communications around the world with anyone else who has one[/Dale Brown]

O2, because we all know BT will win in the end, it IS the telecom version of Micro$oft anyway.

I expect a wave of cell-phone virus and worm outbreaks, which are facilitated by some fantastic new ActiveMessage network protocol that Microsoft develops. They'll blame the users for not installing the latest patches.

Crap!! What are they *not* getting into? And then we will have to reboot the phone? :evil:

I don't have a cell phone. Heck, I don't even have a real phone. My roommate does, but all I have is a voice mail box...no outgoing line :D . Drives my parents nuts, since I can't call them back. I e-mail them just about every day, though, so I do keep in touch.

Wow, your predictive powers put me in awe...

That sounds exactly like what would happen.

The question I've been wondering about is if anyone is going to do an X-Box virus?

I shall NEVER buy a Micro$oft phone....then again, I say it now, in 10yrs there wont really be any other phone. There will probably be Vodaphone, and it will work beautifully be realiable and not crash, however it will only cover 5% of the entire country and so not many people can use it.

They already fucked over the only proper mobile manufacturer in the UK with their shite software.

Said company is suing though.
