>What use is an unnetworked phone? I love it how people ask rhetorical questions without thinking through what the answers might be, and how those answers might undermine their points. A few things journalists could do with an un-networked device: take notes, take photos, record audio, record video, show people pictures and other things stored on the phone, look up information that is stored locally, find contacts numbers and then call them from a different device... the list could go on, but is that not enough? It's an interesting effort. I don't see a need to diss it, even though the usage scenarios seem a bit arcane.
