They usually denote a....well...note! Usually at the bottom. So if you scroll down you'll find:

Oh look! It's facebook 2.0!!!

Sleek and simple to use. That's what sells. Good looking unit.

"There are enough of these cases to justify a banning."

"Whilst I won't call 'SETUP' on this, it does sound awfully like the authorities wanted to publicise the consequences...."

You're not very familiar with dispatch operations are you? Someone shooting a laser pointer at aircraft needs to be stopped immediately. Thus the priority of the call that goes out.
