You can get freeview boxes with built in HD recorder (and HD recorders with built-in freeview receivers, which sounds like the same thing, but they’re packaged differently).
A cellphone that takes two (or more) SIM cards. I, and everyone I know with a business phone/Blackberry-like thingummy, has to lug two cells around with them all the time. I’d rather just carry my business phone with my personal SIM in it, and choose which account to call from - and then of course the phone will ring when someone calls my personal account and let me know which line the call is from.
I’ve been doing some unofficial market research with colleagues and friends, and I predict there’s a VAST market for this.
They wouldn’t be CATS, then, would they? Cats need their claws. How else would they be able to get on top of the curtain rods and look down on people? It’s just that my indoor cats don’t get the opportunity to naturally wear their claws down, in spite of having access to scratching posts.
Ummm… jjimm… dual SIM phones already exist. Also, there are dual-sim adaptors for single-SIM phones…
Cite! I mean, not in an aggressive way, I’ve been looking for them for ages. (The adapters are crap, BTW, as they require a hard reset to switch between SIMs.)
here y’go:
Notably, some of these models are capable of using both SIMs simultaneously - necessary if you want to be able to receive calls on both numbers/accounts. Lots of other dual SIM options require you to switch between one or the other, which is only marginally more convenient than physically swapping out the SIM.

And of course, a left handed monkey wrench.
I’m tired of being the guy who is sent out for those things… :o
They also seem to be taking their time developing the long weight - I’m thinking of going back and telling the lads to use something else instead.
Yeah, your slowly cooking your battery, and slowly diminishing its capacity.
I thought:
a)most modern phones control the charging process themselves
b)Lithium Ion batteries last longer if they’re kept topped up anyway
Thank you for the information.
I am now spinning the wheel o’vengeance.
I was told* that the wall chargers that you get with your phone will stop when the phone is fully charged. The car chargers are more primitive and do what you describe (just keep giving a straight charge, so don’t leave it connected for too long).
- by my engineering bro, I’m not just blindly believing the Verizon jerks.
Not that it’s much comfort, but I used to work for Ritchie, and did some testing of solar power for remote waterers. At that time, it was too expensive to generate enough current for a heating element or pump to keep the water thawed.
Unfortunately I have already spun the wheel o’vengeance and dispatched the monkeys to wreak havok on

hmm. Christina Aguilera. How the hell did that happen?
Going low-tech, here. I want adult-sized footie pj’s, like the ones I had when I was a kid (only bigger, obviously).
Well, she certainly deserves it for other reasons, I’m sure.
Depending on how you define “havoc,” this could be a fortuitous happenstance. Namely, does “havoc” include or imply “nakedness” and “whipped cream?”
Here ya go!
Hey, I did some research sufficient for IMHO threads, and the consensus is that new phones will stop charging after they are charged.
So, product wish fulfilled.
You’d never be able to get the cat into the cat-holding device.
