Breathalyzer on your cell
LG found a way to introduce a feature that makes it seem as though they are out to save lives with their cell phones. Now, three of their new cell phones have breathalyzers on them. The following excerpt comes from Wired's blog on gadgets.
"I knew a guy in college who had so many DUI's that the courts made him install a breathalyzer in his car. Now it looks like judges could just give out cell phones. LG's new line of breathalyzer phones can tell you if you're wasted before you get behind the wheel. Just take a deep breath and blow on your handset, then check out the on-screen results. It'd be great if someone made an enhancement for this feature that could block you from calling your girlfriend's number after midnight when you're irretrievably plastered. Could save a lot of relationships that way. The breathalyzer feature will be available on LG's SD410, KP4100 and LP4100 phones. These babies could save people a whole lot of grief."
I agree. These phones need to come with a feature that allows you to block certain contacts when your BAC is a little too high to make reasonable phone calls.
