Yes, NOW we're talking. ShagPhone ! Cool. Thanks for digging up this wonderful idea. And on again a related recent finding, the Motorola "3G Generation Here" report from 11 April 2006 (its free, 45 pages and very good overview of how mobile phones are changing behaviour) gives a very clever variation to the ShagPhone idea. In Dubai today it has become quite common for young men to hand out a new phone and prepaid SIM card to a pretty lady, as the opening move in romance. She gets something more substantial than flowers or a drink. He gets her exclusive phone number. And as this habit has been becoming more commonplace, of course the prettier ladies get many such phones, so they also start to measure the wealth of the suitor, based on how good a phone is he willing to hand out... ShagPhones indeed. Great posting !!! You make me very MobHappy.... Tomi Ahonen :-) Ha ha, MobHappy !!!
