Ever experience that weird noise coming through your car speakers right before your cell phone is going to ring? (your cell phone needs to be resting close to the radio console) What causes that?

Also, I sleep with my cell phone right above my head, and I’ve noticed that I always wake up seconds before my phone rings. This happens to me constantly and at all different times. Do cell phones trasmit some kind of radiation or electromagnetic waves just before a call comes through and is that what’s waking me? Is it normal for "it" to be causing me to wake like that?

The carrier in question is Sprint and it is a new samsung phone… I went from New Jersey to Virginia. Do cell phones not sometimes work when u go to another state as in not recieving calls and texts or is it just that my phone is acting stupid?

People obviously can and do use cell phones on airplanes. I’ve seen people do it. So what is the issue?

I have the LG Fusic from Sprint right now but we are about to be done with Sprint. We are basically going to choose our next cell phone carrier based on the phone we can get. Having the phone as a modem is the most important feature to us. But trying to figure out what all phones have that feature is like pulling teeth! Every carrier calls it something different, and I’m not sure if certain things mean what I think they mean so on and so forth.

I walk down the street. At least every other person is on a cell phone. Those that aren’t, have one clipped on their waist. I walk through the mall, airport, restaurants, etc. People are all on the cell phones. You pull up next to another car at a stop light and turn to see the driver…….on his or her cell phone.

Did we really miss this many phone calls prior to cell phones being invented? Or are we as a society totally overcommunicating now that we have them?
