Wireless Bravado
A man in the UK was sentenced to four months in prison for using his mobile phone on an airplane. Faiz Chopdat continued to play games on his mobile after three requests to shut it off. In his defense, Chopdat’s lawyer said he was feeling “some sort of bravado” on account of returning from his honeymoon. If gaming becomes the killer app for mobile phones, they are going to need an “airplane mode” that shuts off the radio.
