It would be very cool indeed. I can imagine myself gathering a bunch of old smartphones people inevitably throw away as it rots in a drawer somewhere for years and years. Then proceed to create a little network of these things and... I dunno, use as CCTVs or something. If we can get up to 50 sub-par smartphones we'll be able to make some sort of resemblance of a botnet!
