This season's total waste of money must have item for incurable Sci-Fi geeks:

The TARDIS phone flasher (they could have given it a better name). A bit small at 3" high, but a cool piece of rubbish pop culture memorabilia nonetheless. Once it is tuned to your mobile, it will flash and make the TARDIS dematerialisation sound just before your mobile rings.

I assume it takes advantage of that annoying signal that makes the telly/radio of hi fi buzz just before the phone rings. Well from now on it will be entertaining. At least until it becomes intolerable.

Geeks can give up at any time..........

It's just that we'd be very grateful if we could be left to get on with it for the forseeable future.......

The one time I actually want to follow the link, and you haven't provided one. I cast my cursor all over the post, but to no avail. [profile] ellistar little eyes lit up when I told him about this, and he wants one for his desk at work.

Try Forbidden Planet or Galaxy 4. I believe they are both .co.uk addresses.

Forbidden Planet don't seem to have it. Galaxy 4 do have it at 7.99, but have a minimum order of 9.98, and I don't want anything else. Stupid people are bidding up to about £15 for one of these on Ebay!

I thought it said "The 'tards' Phone Flasher".

Far better I feel.

Try having a Crackberry near a computer. The first time it crackled, I thought the Cybermen were coming to take over.
