1996: The Israeli secret service finds that a cell phone can be used for things other than chatting with friends. It also makes a pretty nifty little bomb for disposing of an enemy, which is what happens to Yahya Ayyash on Jan. 5, 1996 when he tries talking on a booby-trapped phone apparently provided by Israel's Shabak.
Ayyash might have appreciated the irony: He was the chief bomb-maker for Hamas, and was linked to the killings of more than 70 Israelis, many of them civilians.

#5 Saves a lot of valuable time CF. Enables one to call ahead to the Kroger or Publics meat section and order those favorite steak cuts. Think of the job search time wasted, waiting on special cuts....fumbling with real cash at the check-out, then the long slug to the handicapped parking slot.

#9 ..yes, its something that's earned, like sticking a gun in someone's gut and demanding their wallet, or voting for politicians who'll do it for you.
