    Nokia really put their phones through the mangle - I love going down to the reliability labs

    Anyone who labels their product "unbreakable" deserves all that is coming their way.

    Didn't a couple of brits do something similar about a year ago (involved a high-altitude weather balloon?)

    Yes, quite a few have done balloons (almost certain it is illegal), but none has made it to orbit, AFAIK.
    I'm pretty sure with our sapphire and titanium construction, one of ours would probably survive re-entry ;-)

    "
    The phone itself will not "call home"; messages and pictures will come back via the satellite's radio link.
    "

    Well, that will save on roaming charges then...

    Yes, I imagine they'd be astronomical.
