Still giggling at "gigantor ginger jumblies"... loves me some Christina Hendricks.

But let's look at this from another angle: carriers, stop charging a premium for "smart phones". If it's acceptable to rollover cellular talk minutes on a family plan, why not data?

What are these "discs" you speak of?

You speak treason...

Hmm, maybe rework that first video? It's garbled. And with nothing to compare the second video to, the second video doesn't look particularly image stabilized.

@stan-the-man: If you mean two telephone numbers, that can be handled at the carrier level, regardless of the technology.
