Calling your own mobile on a landline to see where you’ve left it

 

Extract from the Quotmart Mail Order catalogue.  “At last losing your mobile can be a thing of the past !! Time to let the Quotmart Phone Implant see off lost or stolen mobiles for ever.  Just imagine – no more  phoning from your landline to see where it is or panic-rummaging down the  backs of the sofas or car seats to locate it before it stops ringing. With just a simple minor surgical procedure this voice-activated  and movement-powered mobile pod can be implanted under the skin, in a tooth or  discreetly hidden under a roll of loose fat .Wherever, you will always know where it is . So at last  a mobile you can take into a bathroom without it sliding off the cistern into the toilet   – a dream come true ?  The Quotmart Phone Implant may not be a smart phone in looks and function but it’s smart enough to know what other smart phones don’t – that you only need it to make a receive calls and anything else is just extra weight and space-intensive design features. Consisting simply of a receiver-chip, a microphone and vibrotone  the pod is microscopic and you won’t know it’s there until you need it or it needs you. Magic.”
