      Amusing, but raises some questions, like how does this get around the fact that cellphone connections operate on 850/900/1800/ and 1900 MHz frequencies, and WiFi operates on the 2.4 and 5 GHz frequencies? Ooops! Believe me, if you have WiFi built into your phone, you will not be able to connect no farther from your access point than your laptop will.

      What possible effect would ANY device plugged into your wired Ethernet adapter have on your wireless adapter? I hope nobody is this naive, but it is amusing to imagine all the poor slobs out there covering their salad bowls with aluminum foil and dropping their cell phones in it.

      By the way, anyone want to buy a used pair of x-ray vision glasses?
