TeamSugar user Jyramiah added a great anecdote to the Cell Phone Rant Group: What would you do if the person on the cell phone being rude called you rude for trying to help her?
It started with her working at a sandwich shop when a customer entered and got in line while talking on her cell phone. When the counter person tried to take the her order, what do you think the customer did? Said "hang on" to the person she was talking to and made the order? Told the person on the other line she'd call him back after she left the place of business?
Nope. The customer on the cell phone told the person on the other end of the line that the guy trying to help her behind the counter was being rude. By trying to do his job and help her. If that's not galling enough, when the customer with the really important phone call got to Jyramiah at the register, she had the nerve to complain about the sandwich guy being rude by interrupting her phone call.

It's not just LG that's out of control with the fancy names; their buddy Samsung is in on the cutesy single names too! No more numbers to name cell phones, people; you need a catchy name to compete in this market.
What are Samsung's names coming dangerously close to? Ladies' razor names! Both are often pink, both are marketed at women, and both are indispensable yet frustrating. Samsung is helping to blur the lines, too.
Take my quiz and see if you can distinguish between the name of a hot new cell phone and a flowery razor found lining Target's aisles!
I have a sneaking suspicion that hoodie-type of girls are also Star Wars type of girls, which is good news for the maker of this Boba Fett Hoodie (although $98. . . seriously, Ecko?! What kind of rich nerds are you hoping to reach?).
Maybe put your boyfriend in this one, you in the Storm Trooper Hoodie, and just see what kind of looks you get toolin' around town running your errands.
With the sexy new BlackBerry Storm making its debut in November on the Verizon network, any early releases of pictures, and certainly videos, are always a treat. Watching RIM's first BlackBerry Storm commercial brought me back to Summer of 2007, when all we could think about was June 29 — the day Apple's iPhone hit store shelves. I decided to put the first iPhone commercial and now RIM's first BlackBerry Storm commercial side-by-side to see which one appeals to you more. Maybe I'm just biased because the Storm ad is new, but I find the music edgier, the colors brighter and it's just a lot livelier. Do you think the Storm ad makes it look more appealing than the iPhone?
I've been looking everywhere for a Wii Fit Yoga Mat ever since I saw it in the DreamGear Fitness Bundle, and behold — just yesterday I spotted the fit-worthy accessory in the game section of Target, and had to hold myself back from dropping it in my cart (gotta prioritize game accessories in this economy, right?). But I suppose the $30 price isn't too much to spend on my favorite Wii Fit exercise!
What other Wii Fit accessory did I find in the aisles that had my fingers itching to swipe my credit card? Find out when you read more

But the one that manages to stay constant in her life is a gadget that seems to be a staple in her everyday look — her cell phone!
