So now that joke about the American businessman shitting out a fax on the golf course is one step closer to reality?

Better in your ear than in any of your other orifices. Ask not why technology why it has gone the way it has, but be grateful for the places it has not gone.

By touching forefinger to thumb, the user starts or ends a call,
