I've never had any bad experiences with cell phones, so I don't understand the hate.

Sorry...I've not only got a cell, I've got a Bluetooth headset too. I don't use it all the time (mostly as a modem for my PDA), and my only problem is with people using them in theatres or in cars (sans speakerphone or headset). Otherwise I just don't see the rudeness. Unless one is sans cellphone and it makes you jealous.

My problem is when the people use them in public and start yelling at the person they are talking on the phone with.

If you want to talk on the phone, fine, just respect my right not to hear your problems.

I've been considering making a Cell phone jammer for those occasions :twisted:

I just want an EMP weapon so that I can short out the car batteries and Cellphones of the assholes who use them while DRIVING. Either that or can CHP let me get pop up launched HARM missiles that would home in on the cellphones on the roadways?

I've been in theatres (there's one like it at Universal CityWalk near LA) that block cell signals completely. I'm rather sure it was deliberate - few single-story or even multiple-story buildings block my phone, and the signal just outside was pretty strong.

No. But this is something I've only noticed in maybe three theatres before I actually turned my phone off.

I have a cellphone, and it fucking pisses me off when people are talking loudly on the fucking things in a restaurant or movie theatre. As for cars, there is no evidence that handsfree cellphones actually reduce the likelihood of an accident. The problem with cellphones is the distraction, not the mechanics of holding the phone. A person talking to you in the car is different; a passenger will generally pause when it's obvious that traffic conditions temporarily require your full attention, but a person on the other end of a cellphone will not.

People will always find ways to be inconsiderate in public, though the cell-phone is one of the most disgusting inventions ever devised when it comes to the act of wasting time or moreover distracting drivers. However, one has to admit that they obviously have uses, and, more importantly, a market niche.

So do air horns, but I wouldn't bring one of those into a restaurant either.

Well, until you have done so, you do *not* know how stupid and angry (at the same time) people can really be in person.

Verilon, that's nothing. Try talking to nurses who deal with people in hospitals. I saw a guy almost start a fight once because they wouldn't let him smoke ... IN THE FUCKING HOSPITAL.

How about people getting pissed off because they didn't have the tickets to a Rated R movie and had to be sent to the Disney movie they bought tickets for, cussing ME out for it, AND for the fact that they would have to WAIT IN LINE to exchange the tickets (there's only one box office...). God forbid everybody stop what they're doing so we can accomodate five people out of the 2,000+ people we're getting hit with that night...

Oh, I wasn't saying that they're not. I was just mentioning that some places solve the problem of cellphones by blocking the signals.

Okay. Ideas to make cellphones more like another person in the car? Obviously you can mute the speaker with the right setup, or tell the person to hold on...and hang up if they won't. I've had to do that with my aunt even on my home phone. Good thing she doesn't have my cell number...

You americans and your low mobile-market penetration....

Moblie phones are not a rare thing here.

EVERYONE has one. And by that I mean everyone from the age of five to sixty-five.

We're used to them We don't need to shout down them any more. But I still have to kill people whose phones ring in cinemas (you can't get signal jammers in England, they breach the Radiocommunications act)...

Since the only reason I would get one is to report an accident, I am thinking either Citizen's Band with the ability to report to police/fire turned off 99% of the time, or going to an army navy surplus store and getting a WWII/Veitnam era Mortorola "Field Phone", for the same purposes, I actually see quite a few disabled vehicles and know the landmarks better then the normal drivers visiting the park. Around some of those steep winding grades the broken axels and blown out tires all along the roadways.
