Ask Carlos why AMX isn't up ?

Maybe folks aren't buying cellphone accessories ?

Maybe spandex is ruining the cellphone market? Who wants a cellphone like this?

simon....would you pick up my reservation while your at it. i didn't see my name on the list, but if you remind them who it's for, i'm sure they'll see their error and there will be no problem. oh....tell them to move a couple more jets to bq, cause i'm not gonna park mine there. no way.

poco............common.......we can do a whole lot better in the butt dept than that. si o no. i'll tell one of my sisters to stick her cell in her back pocket and model for the picture. much nicer. that's more like cell u lite, than cell phone.

====================
The resident kid asked me a few years ago how much I'd pay for pictures (take them myself?) of cell phones.

I said it was not sporting to pay. Better a clear shot from a moving car,, that's talent.

Impressive initiative,, maybe that kid will do OK in the world?
