Oh, I forgot. I have one of them things, too, but I rarely turn it on. My
wife uses hers constantly, entertaining herself on her 45-minute daily commute
by talking (with headset) to her friends and kinfolks. Me? I've had one for
years, but I'll bet every ounce of my ton of camera gear against a dead AA
battery I've made less than a dozen calls on it. I actually like being out of
touch with the rest of the world. Right now, I'm not even sure where it is.
