RIM's new invention stops you from texting while driving
RIM recently put a patent on a motion invention that stops you from texting while driving. Does this mean we can't use our cell phones in cars? Is this something that you would be interested in?
Radiation is good
do you have a link? I'd like to read more about this. very interesting!
Why yes, that is a bag phone
If you're stupid enough to text while driving then you deserve an app like this. Kid down the street was killed by someone texting while driving, the arsehat driver still can't understand what she did wrong!

Are you in the industry as well?

That's unfortunate. This is a political issue. Cell phones have both saved and taken multiple of lives. To pass another law or take away all of your texting or uses of cell phone while you're in a vehicle -- even if you're on a bus or train or back seat is unfair.
It's just common sense. And it's the life we choose to live in a free society.

ehhh no sorry guys.
I text and drive, I don't take my hands off steering wheel or eyes off the road.
More advanced phones, the new ones that we call smart phones can READ our text messages via our car speakers and we can tell it what to respond to that person without touching or looking at it.
Some phones require to use it's amazing keyboard and look at the phone.
I hope RIM get's the patent and doesn't let anyone else use it! PLEASE RIM do us a favor!

no, but I'm part of the local transit authority. this may not be directly presented to us but we have strict rules about mobile phone use.
we aren't even supposed to have Bluetooth headsets which is kind of unfair IMO.

Exactly. Starting a new law doesn't really solve the problem. It just takes away more liberties. Yes RIM please do us a favour and hide it!
Mobile Pro
Yes. Well driving is a career. Are walkie-talkies banned as well? I thought transit operators had a source of communication between each other.
Personal phone calls I can see banned while working; like most careers out there.

A hand held two way radio is banned, but a PTT microphone connected to a two-way radio is OK...
So; an FRS radio, or a PTT phone is illegal, but a properly mounted CB radio with a microphone is OK

Really?
How is this invention suppose to know the difference between a passenger in a car or the driver?
So what if I'm a passenger in a train or bus/shuttle? I won't be able to text because it senses motion?

Folks, I'm pretty sure this will be an option to turn off, and on with PW protection. It sounds like it's meant for parents of teens.
Don't get your panties in a bunch.

Here. How 'bout a more reliable link with a key sentence that was left out of the gottabemobilearticle.
This is a 2009 patent. It'll never make it into a BlackBerry.

This confusion can easily be avoided if you pronounce the word intended aloud. If it has a voiced Z sound, then it’s “lose.” If it has a hissy S sound, then it’s “loose.” Here are examples of correct usage: “He tends to lose his keys.” “She lets her dog run loose.”
Loose
not rigidly fastened or securely attached
Lose
to miss from one's possession or from a customary or supposed place
Also, just because a word has an "s" at the end, doesn't mean it needs an apostrophe.
