Have you seen the size of the thing as well - it's so thick there's no way I could get that into a pocket... and I can't imagine putting it to the side of my head to talk into, the same designer must have been responsible for the 77x0 monstrosity as the original n-gage.



Now that you mention negative memory it reminds me of when I managed to get a VAX to allocate -1 page of virtual memory and not surprisingly a very bad thing happened: the entire machine locked up solid - my first but not last success at crashing the mighty VMS! Worse still, the machine was located about 5 miles away at the time with no onsite support so someone (not me!) had to walk (no transport) all the way to reboot it.
