Cell Phones: Theaters Are the Least of It

Remember the New York City Council's bill to ban cell phones in theaters and other public performances? Just wait 'til they hear about this.


A Hong Kong health club chain has banned mobile phones from its locker rooms. Why? Because some new phones come equipped with cameras. Oops.


Think that's bad? A chain of casinos in Macau is thinking about doing the same thing, for much the same reason. Can't wait for them to try to pry the phones away from their high rollers...


(By the way, Mayor Bloomberg -- to his vast credit -- vetoed the cell phone ban today.)
