Or is it practical? A survey of Brits found this was a service they wanted. Would a survey of North Americans find the same result? (Not YOU of course, but do you know someone ELSE that would use it?) Should Virgin Mobile or it's US partner Sprint offer this service in NA? from http://www.newkerala.com/news-daily/news/features.php?action=fullnews&id=85519 An end to drunken phone calls?: [World News]: LONDON, March 14 : Cell phone users can now save themselves from making embarrassing drunken phone calls with a new service by British network Virgin Mobile. Phone users can now place a temporary block on calls to ex-partners, bosses or anyone else they are tempted to afflict with their drunken lack of verbal inhibition. Before a night out, one can dial 333, followed by the number to be blocked. The service, Dialing Under the Influence, was introduced after a survey found of the calls people made while drunk, 30 percent were to ex-partners. - -- Copyright 2005 by United Press International.
