If you ’ve got an unlearned fear of kidnapping ( and , even worse , abduct by lush toy ) , you ’ll be happy to learn that Nokia has a patent for a cameraphone that would instantly alert the authorities in the pillowcase of your being snatch . Basically , the phone would look like its off , but by hitting a recess panic push , you ’d be able to send an emergency alert with image , auditory sensation and even a GPS localisation . Holy cellphone Batman ! You might think there would be a problem if reception is lose during your duress . But if you do go through a burrow or something , the phone will store images and sound in its memory and conduct everything as soon as a signal is regained . Sure to be a live seller in South America . Um , has anyone told the CIA about this yet ?
