MSNBC – It’s unseemly, to say the least, to be on your cell during a funeral. But there are folks who do it, as well as take calls during other inappropriate times, including intimate moments or while inside a place of worship.
One of Windows Mobile’s slogans is “Do more of what you want to do — on the go,” but no one at Microsoft likely imagined users would do exactly that: use the phone while on the toilet, during a funeral or even in the midst of “extremely intimate moments.”
Microsoft Australia polled more than 2,500 mobile users in Australia, China, India, Japan and Taiwan and found many of them say they use their cell phones during instances most consider private and off-limits to such intrusions. (Msnbc.com is a joint venture of Microsoft and NBC Universal.)
