Short Text Messages In Mid-Air

Posted by timothy on from the clever-finns dept.

bahree writes "The BBC is running an interesting story on how Nokia is making a mobile that lets you write short text messages in mid-air. The messages are written using a row of LEDs fitted on the rear cover of Nokia's forthcoming 3220 phone. A motion sensor in the phone makes the lights blink in a sequence that spells out letters when the handset is waved in the air."

      I see the day late and intelligence deprived modder is back with points to waste. If the cowardly pig would indentify himself or just post a reply, we might find out what has his tits in an uproar.

    Ok, how about:

    FuckOffnDie

    or

    FOAD

    Personally, I would lean toward the less hostile messages like:

    ShowYerTits!
