While visiting Cyprus, you may now hear the following: 'at this point, we'd like to ask everyone to discontinue use of any electronic devices that may emit radio frequencies, or to please turn on the in-flight mode'. The difference this time is that it won't just be on the plane, or be in regards to your cell phone.

www.newsoftheweird.com - 'Earlier this year, Britain's Ann Summers sex-product company announced it would stop selling its remote-controlled Love Bug 2 personal vibrator in Cyprus after Cypriot military officials complained that the device's signals were interfering with army radio transmissions. '

This story was also carried in the Guardian and the Observer, where it becomes evident that the item must be within 15 meters of the radio device being used by the military. No one seems to mention that to be within that space of a military radio transmitter, you'd have to be in the army... and likely on duty. But I digress.

For those of you with any sort of radio transmitter, you'll know of the phantom door-bell, baby monitor, garage door, and TV remote interference they can cause, in this case I don't feel I need give you any more fodder for the imagination... have fun with this one.

As I write this, and just to prove that the machine world is in
complete support of this technology, my iTunes just randomly selected
'you sexy thing'... I'm absolutely serious.

Also in the HOT GADGET category: Jordan Yerman and the iGasm...

Yeah, I, too, wonder at how such "electronic devices" are getting so close to those radio antennae... but does the iGasm affect pacemakers?

Seems like someone should be getting more shore leave...
