cell phone ejection
if your cell phone rings in a theater, automatic and immediate ejection from theater | |
simple enough, if a phone rings a big security guard comes down and throws the person out and the phone in the garbage.

Pocket Cell Phone Jammer -- For Real
http://www.starportuk.com/21.htm "The would be mobile user standing within range of your Wave-Shield is none the wiser. They just think they have a poor or non-existent signal. Both their incoming and outgoing calls are mysteriously terminated and the phone displays 'no service'." [bristolz, Mar 29 2002]

For repeat offenders, I can think of other, more
mechanically challenging things to do with a person
and a cell phone. |
|
|
(For one, it would finally provide a convincing advantage of small, round Nokias over big, flat, flip-top Motorolas.) |
|
|
This may be more satisfying for the other people if the seats themselves were cellphone-activated ejector seats. ring ring ring WHOOSH!! and the offender disappears through the ceiling. Of course that may be distracting, which would be a problem in theatres and cinemas. In that case the seats could be placed on cellphone-activated trap doors. |

I thought the Motorola V was the smallest phone you could get.... |
|
|
How about tasers in the seat cushions? With the right capacitance, you can short out the phone. |
|
|
How about locating the person
in the hall and
electroshocking (trought the
chair), by remote control.
(Only the right person, hi,
hi, hi). |

Not just theaters, but restaurants and libraries, too. |

cellphonus rantus ad nauseum infinitum |
|
|
interesting idea, although PeterSealeys idea about the phone jammer could be amusing coz I doubt that anybody would guess to complain, and just think it would be bad reception. |

|
Throwing them out of the theater is one thing. Causing harm and destroying property is another. |

Rant - hurt people who do X. |
