    I'm wondering if we will soon start seeing anatomical changes in the orientation of hand bones to accommodate cell 'phone use?

    Oh gracious me, we'll probably evolve with that as a root cause. Because their grasp of ergonomics is not apparent.
    I stopped liking cell phones when pull-out antennas disappeared. Sized like cordless phones are now, decent keypad, hand filling yet operable in the palm by thumb, batteries with sufficient mass to generate a real vibration, screen not dominating the device.
    Biggest joke is keypad or touch screen crowded in the lower margin.
    I always thought the screens should be lowered, so thumb can flex over first and second fingers; like almost EVERY tool you can think of.

    As if phones haven't become fidgety enough. Here's one more toy than device, and a keypad only fit for a Barbie doll. I thanked Jon's post though; something else for my anti-want list. "Anti-want" is the PG rated name...accurate title is more like "don't you f'n DARE".

    YOUR employees goofing off on the internet: hell to pay.

    I was thinking, those guys have some creativity. Every place I have worked, has encouraged some fun, as long as the work is quality and done on time.
