That's actually a neat idea, but you don't need the lead (the thing's not radioactive to my knowledge). Let's see which gadget company will be the first one to sell Faraday's cages for iphones. Can you just imagine the ads? "Be absolutely protected from unwanted phone bills! Only with the iCase(TM)"
If the international data plan charges $24 per 20MB, and they got a bill for $4800, that means the 3 phones, while turned off, downloaded a total of around 4GB. WTF?
Increased number of pirates -> more ppl urinate in the oceans. Piss is warmer than ocean water, thus the average temperature of the ocean rises -> global warming.
I have had fuzzy dice that move with the car movements for as long as I can remember. And it's a mechanical device too, not your fancy digital dice. Now excuse me, I gotta go put holes in some punchcards.
As far as I'm concerned, it's fair. You block my browser, I won't visit your webpage. Ever. And we will both live happily ever after. At least I know I am, not sure about your business though. But again, I couldn't care less about your business since I never had the chance to know what it was about.
Yes, and you could pay a wad of cash upfront and get lifetime service. I know, I have 2 tivos with lifetime. I don't pay anything monthly on them. But they stopped selling that 2-3 years ago.

$4800/$24=200; 200*20=4000.
That would be even worse. So you're charged even for failed transfers? Vade retro, iPhone!

Better yet, how about airplanes? If it's not really off at any time, isn't it illegal to take an iphone on a flight?

Don't they have a right to a jury trial?
Why, did they murder someone?
Actually considering the losses even in the simplest circuit, 700Wh is enough to power a 100W bulb for somewhere between 6.67 and 6.98 hours.
No, I submit it's the other way around.

Q.e.d.
Big money-grubbing corporation only cares about their profits. News at 11!
Gives a new meaning to "Where do you want to go today?"
I, for one, welcome our massive spam sending car-botnet overlord.
And a body kit that adds 1463 points to the 3DMark score.
Now if they only made a machine that scratches my butt, world would be perfect.

How about not allowing applets to go full screen period. I see no good reason for them to.
Hallelujah. My username is finally getting the credit it deserves.
And I am sympathetic to you and your wife, but that doesn't mean the press shouldn't be allowed in your bedroom.
Who modded this funny? It's actually very sound advice.
I didn't. I know I'd be using Slackware.
Mod parent up. And I don't say it lightly.
Yet. Nothing yet.

You could use the Homer Simpson solution.
