I can see it now - I'm driving home and my wife calls me to say that our new 60" TV was just delivered. I say: "Don't lay it down, keep the box erect". The next thing I know I'm 70 feet in the air because my car heard "XBOX... Eject"!

Jeebus. And they think Cell Phones are a problem?

They can't even get SYNC right. This should be a real barrel of monkeys.
