    Note: Tons of screaming, turn your speakers down or regret it for the rest of the day. This is an absolutely piss-poor quality video of some woman in Sao Paulo, Brazil almost getting smacked by a train trying to grab her dropped cell phone from the tracks. Sometimes you just ... / Continue →

    This is the Willcon Phone Strap 2, a confusingly named cell phone that's allegedly the world's smallest. The $380 (WTF?) Tic-Tac box features a 1-inch color screen, flip-up antennae, 2-hours of talk time, and doesn't even have a camera. I'm sorry, but I just don't see the pur... / Continue →

    Tired of nuking your brain with cell phone radiation? ME NEITHER. I can't get enough of that stuff. I think it's because I used to rest my head on the microwave when I was cooking Hot Pockets growing up. But for those of you who care, Pong is selling a line of cases for popu... / Continue →

    This is a video of a girl in China talking on her cell phone when she falls through a 20-foot sinkhole. And for once, I don't blame her. While I generally frown on the use of a cellular device while doing anything other than sitting motionless in a locked room, this girl was ... / Continue →

    Picture related: what almost happened. A Jetstar pilot was forced to abort a landing in Singapore after he forgot to put down the landing gear on time because he was using his cell phone. I...am never flying again. Well, not on a plane anyways. Only with my jetpack. The ca... / Continue →

    Inb4 why do all patent drawings look like something out of a 70's science textbook? Nokia recently filed a patent for the technology that will allow a user to be alerted to an incoming call/text message/email via vibrating tattoo. Because God forbid you have to rely on your a... / Continue →

    Because what good is a world with fewer people than mobile devices (SPOILER: a way better one), technology analysts at Cisco now predict mobile devices (cell phones, tablets, etc.) will outnumber humans by 2016. Jesus -- do you know how many devices that is?! Hundreds of thou... / Continue →

    Because the government doesn't want you to run me over on my walk to the bar, the National Transportation Safety Board is encouraging all states to adopt stricter bans on the use of cell phones while driving. And while they're at it they should do something about the guy I saw... / Continue →

    Listen: I hate my ears as much as the next person with grotesquely oversized lobes, but do see me designing $20 iPhone cases that make it look like I'm rocking different ears? No, you don't. But mostly because you can't actually see me at all, and you should be thankful for t... / Continue →

    I have no idea what Neo-Victorian means but if it's anything Neo-Nazism THEN I WILL NOT TOLERATE IT. This is a fully functional old-timey cell phone assembled from what used to be a poorly named Sagem X-5m. Now? Now it's like a vocal-callgulator or something. I dunno, I've ... / Continue →

    Jarrod McKinney, who was skydiving with an iPhone in his pocket (allegedly to be able to call somebody in case he landed in the wrong place, although I suspect he's the kind of person that always puts his cell phone on the dinner table set to loud), lost it at 13,500-ft and the... / Continue →

    The $550 Sonim XP 3300 is allegedly the world's toughest cell phone, forged by Thor's hammer on Mount Doom in Mordor. I'm lying, but that would be sweeter than honey. Which -- BACK OFF, BEES, I'MMA LICK THIS HIVE! (Can you tell I didn't take my meds today?) The phone is even... / Continue →

    Because there's nothing that makes a fanboy pop boners quite like color options (seriously, that's all it takes sometimes -- and only black and white), Apple is releasing the long-awaited white iPhone 4 tomorrow for the same price as the black model. So yeah, if you've been ho... / Continue →

    This is a short video of a lady riding the train and using what I can only assume is the latest in cell phone technology. No word if the device is able to place calls to dead relatives, but my guess is absolutely. Plus anybody else she can imagine. Get it? Because she's out... / Continue →

    AT&T just announced their intention to buy T-Mobile for a whopping $39-billion. Hopefully they'll rename the company AT&T-Mobile, but probably not considering they can't even stop my phone from autonomously sending nakey pictures of myself to random people in my phonebook when... / Continue →

    Sad burglar is sad. Seen here looking like the sad idiot moron that he is, 25-year old stupid Cody Wilkins has been charged with a string of burglaries in Montgomery County, MD (MOCO FOR THE WIN -- GO QO COUGARS!) after leaving his cell phone charging at a house he was robbing... / Continue →

    I'm pretty sure that's not how you sell phones. Sell phones, get it?! LIKE CELL PHONES, DUMMY! This is a commercial for the new Sony Erickson 'Xperia Play' (Aka 'the PSP phone'). In case you couldn't tell, it's kinda dark. And creepy. Like my uncle's basement, but without... / Continue →

    This is a shot from a Samsung cell phone's instruction manual (they still come with those?!) that explains how to make fake calls to "get out of meetings or unwanted conversations" (read: "pretend you have friends"). That said, I do this kind of thing all the time to impress p... / Continue →

    Are you trying to steal the Geekologie font-fade?! In news that shouldn't surprise anybody who keeps abreast (or even abutt) of tech rumors, Apple and Verizon have announced the iPhone 4 is coming to "America's most reliable network" (and best store to drag a child through -- ... / Continue →
