I'll tell you what is really terrible: hearing your cell phone ring in an unknown location when you are deaf on one side and consequently have no reliable auditory impression of the direction from which a sound is coming. I can only locate a sound either by judging the resonance characteristics of the space around it or by turning around to find the direction in which it seems loudest. :frown1:
That would be awful! Maybe the phone could flash in psychedelic colours? Or levitate...that would be awesome. My BlackBerry rising from the couch cushions like a Phoenix....
Ok, another sad cell phone confession. I frequently tuck my phone in my bra - and still lose it! I look for it and after doing a quick patdown of the hardware used to contain my software, I call myself. The fact that my left breast is vibrating and ringing never fails to startle me! (And of course there's the times I'm standing in line at the grocery store and someone calls me. Oh the looks I get.....)
