Those are "smartphones" and PDA.  Not what I call a cellphone.  My 
linux-based Motorola is about 3.5 x 1.75", way smaller and lighter than 
the PDAs listed in that article.

I have 5 stray cats that like to roll around on a particular doormat on 
my deck.  It's really aggavating, as they fight over it, and leave 
cat**** and cathair all over the place.

I could call the paper and police and whatever, and whine about the 
horrible state of stray cats.

Or I could just fold the doormat over so the cats can't get to the 
scratchy part.

Hmmm... You decide.

And, BTW, I've met Einstein's daugher and secretary several times.  And 
sat in his chair.  (And probably peed in the same urinal....)  So 
calling me "Einstein" is pretty neat.
