Sounds like a hat check/cloakroom, but those usually go out of their way to state that they are not responsible for valuables. You probably want something more like a locker room. |

well originally I thought of a Mobile phone deposit box.. but it just seemed way too messy..... |
|

May I (deride)? This idea sucks. |

Really, I was at the movies yesterday and no phones went off, although it does happen sometimes. This service sort of exists in the form of "Get voice mail and shut the damn thing off." Maybe cell phones could just have on-board answering machines. |

Or pay a service charge to a Mobile Phone/ Cell Phone Nanny? Is that the next logical step of this idea? Do the phones get activities to keep them busy? Charging privileges? |

polartomato I understand this doesnt happen *all* the time and there are people out there who consciously turn them off but there are also people who need A) reminding and B) the occasional slap in the right direction, I am glad that you are not plagued by these infernal contraptions but where I live seems to be a haven of poeple who simply forget/dont care they have thier mob's with them. Its not that all mobile phones need burning.. just that they need a little reminding thats all. |

The reminder in a cinema consists of a Theater Sniper |

This might work for some places who can afford to have one or more phone check person on staff, but i can just imagine how huge the lineups would be if there was only one phone check person and they were also required to do other jobs. |

Cloak inside of theater / restaurant / library with microwave absorbent metal- If the phone doesn't work, it won't be ringing, and nobody will be making calls anyway. |
|

Helpful hint: As long as you don't laugh, the guy 3 rows in front of you on the phone can't tell who threw the half full coke at his head |

There's a mention somewhere else on here that a theatre somewhere (I'm having a vague day today) takes patrons' cell-phones and offers to take messages. |
|
| |
there is a device on the market that can detect mobile when people go near it so i think it's the best way to solve our problem.
something similar to the custom but it's just a tiny machine like your suitcase. |
