Second to the death by watery grave, 810,000 handsets end up amongst the peanuts and broken hearts at a local pub, 315,000 stay behind for an extra long cab ride, 225,000 keep riding public transportation after their owners leave and 116,000 ended up in some dirty laundry."
yeah i leave my phone everywhere, i always lose it, i left over £200 on a train before. wonder what lucky commuter got that, peace.
from the link you posted^ I do doubt that thet many are flushed down the toilet, I can however imagine that that many get lost in water. I would suppose it would be more through accidentaly dropping it in a lake or river while boating or fishing(and that's personal experiance for many people i know >.<) than from flushing them down toilets... Still nonetheless interesting, and funny. Ironic how the cellphone companies focus on making them smaller and smaller. Most are already too small for people. -Andrew
