How about a Cell-Phone be-off?

Something that disconnects cell-phone chatting driver - so they can concentrate on the task at hand of DRIVING!

Now that would be infinitely be more useful. Let alone worth reporting.

French Installed Cell Phone Blocks

I saw an article where in film and theatre venues in France they have started to install cell phone jammers that prevents signals. Thus no incoming calls, nor outbound. They actually made it a law for them to be installed.

Walk the few hundred feet away and your cell works again.

Spendy, around $1,500 per site.

Waiting for them to come to the US. Give it a few years, and you can likely get portable once in the US for 300.

Any transmitter that puts out white noise on same frequency will distrupt valid cell tower signals. Just like radar jammers.

I'd buy one

You're sitting on a goldmine, there, Tex.

Where can I buy one?

Their website is down, and a search turns up no locations where I can buy one of these.

I'd love to get one, if I can.

PDA based TV clicker

PDAs with IrDA can do this now with proper software. It's cell phone static we need so they go outside for better reception.

Keychain clicker turns off TVs

How about adding a channel up-down and volume up-down. I understand some people would enjoy turning off a TV but a far greater percentage would enjoy watching the program of their choice. Channel up-down would not be that tough, would it? I'd buy one right now.

Need one for All apple products

This would be something I could use.

No need, that's a built in feature

No need for that- my mac crashes, reboots, and randommly looses data all by itself!

how about car stereos??

I'd pay good money for something that would shut off those idiots with the unbelievably loud car stereos - with the bass line you can hear three blocks away. The rest of the world doesn't need to hear your music, thank you very much!

Don't leave home without the universal remote

If I'm not mistaken the universal remote I bought for one of my tv's works like that already--except that it can also change the channels and the volume once it finds the model. Why wait for the mini when you can go out in public with a bazooka? Let the anarchy begin...

Praise jesus!

This product will change the world! Not quite as much as the
Cell Phone-B-Gone, but pretty close.
