How to use phone in a sentence?
As technology becomes more sophisticated and people start to use their phones interactively for an increasing number of daily tasks, it would not be surprising if they also increasingly turned to electronic devices for help with personal, health and safety issues, the phone user needs to retain the power to choose what happens. Every domestic violence and sexual assault situation is different, and the phone won't know if the abuser suddenly re-enters the room, grabs the phone, or starts listening in. It's tempting to say that the phone should automatically dial 911, but that could lead to an increase in the number of accidental calls, limit emergency services' capacity to respond to actual urgent calls, and worst of all might tip off the perpetrator that his or her victim is trying to get help.

Space engineer Justine Haupt, 34, built a rotary dial mobile phone due to Justine Haupt dislike of the hyper connectivity associated with smartphones. ( SWNS) Justine Haupt wasnt planning on selling the phones, but Justine Haupt ended up creating a kit that users can use to put together their own version of the tiny phone -- minus the rotary dial, although a newer kit will be more inclusive -- after being inundated with emails from people who wanted to purchase the phone. It is actually my phone - I dont carry my flip phone with me anymore, i never expected to go viral with this.
