How much should I be fined?
We could hang it on you with a 50lb chain!

or we could just hang you with the chain.
I can't believe that some reader apparently did fall for this. P. T. Barnum once said that there are fools born every minute. Guess he knew what he was talking about.
Maybe

But duct tape as a fashion statement is so going to be out of style by early next week.
Finally - A gadget my non-techie husband will want to have!

I think the duct-tape caught his attention!
Good one!! 
Not what I was hoping for

A nice attempt but what about the ultimate in convergence, convenience and ease of use? The Treo Shuffle. No keyboard, no display. You press the button and it randomly dials someone from your address book. Or, move the switch on the back and it will randomly play a song, randomly execute a PalmOne(tm) compatible application or randomly surf a website (sound only of course since there's no display). Or possibly it could randomly download expensive random content or randomly place bids for random items on eBay. Life is random!

That's awesome!

by LazyEight - 4/2/05 8:23 AM In reply to: Not what I was hoping for by grogmaThe loss of keyboard may be its sole improvement; at last, an iTreo requiring fewer than 3 hands to operate! The unit is actually equipped with interactive LCD display, though it's unclear which anatomical feature of the user is used for the interface. Worse yet, the unmodified Treo case and belt clip is far too flimsy to hold the integrated device (though its inevitable breakage eliminated the obvious ergonomic hazards and possible lower back injury). The problem was aggravated by substitution of Duro duct tape for the more rugged 3M brand, no doubt to shave production costs. Overall, the product has great potential, but was marketed prematurely.
hahahah

The only thing I found wrong with this product is the fact that some low quality duct tape was used. Other than that, it's all good.
