LG's breathalyzer phone

Oh, LG, you sure know how to party! And 'tis (always) the season to get sloshed proper and be merry amongst friends, after all—though certain substances may aid and abet your red-cheeked colder-months-activities, be sure you know your limits. But if you can't know your own, there are a variety of devices to lend a helping hand, including LG's breathalyzer cellphone lineup with the LG-SD410, LG-KP4100 and LG-LP4100. We can only imagine Siemens must be less than excited—perhaps we'll find some of their engineers at the bar drowning their sorrows?

hahahaha why would anyone ever buy that, ever????

A breathalyzer is a neccesary party accessory. Who has the highest BAL? Take another drink.

I thought about something like this for a while now. It would be great at preventing drunk dials. Hopefully it allows you to determine which of your contacts you can and cannot contact when you are inebriated. Another idea I had was for a breathalyzer on the PC to prevent drunk IMs and Ebay purchases

So they know if they are over the legal limit? Many states have a legal limit that can be exceeded by drinking a glass of wine with dinner.

Out of curiousity does it prevent drunk dialing???

You have to blow a certain amoung between the hours of 11 pm and 5 am to be allowed to dial? Something like that?

Or is it just a breathalizer?

Screw that, give me something I can snort or inject (with a hypospray-type thing or course) that renders alcohol inert in like 30 seconds. That way, I can get shitfaced, and then before I drive home, fall back to "Last Known Good Configuration". Also would be nice if you drank too much, to save you from "preying to the porcelein gods" or "shouting europe at the sink".

Writing this: Good
Reading this: Better
Reading this with a massive hangover: priceless.

Gone are the days of self-control, we now rely on electronics to tell us if we're good to drive home.

I waiting for the inevitable, "But my phone said I could drive" defense.

[Ed @ Dec 19th 2005 12:55AM]

Strange, whilst drinking the only thing I can't operate is my phone...

[Ron @ Dec 19th 2005 12:55AM]

Well I used brethalizer in my local bar for 25c like 5 years ago. Some of this ideas will never die...

The guy in the foreground used the breathalyzer and look who he goes home with. The guy in back didn't. Worth the cash I'd say. Nuff' said.
