[edit] this is not okay

why is this even real?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.65.116.97 (talkcontribs).

Why wouldn't it be real? There are reliable records that the event exists. And if it's that good for the cellular phone recycling industry, we should have something like this in every country.
However, I wonder why the minimum weight of phone allowed for throwing - 220 grams - is so heavy. This would disqualify most popular phones in the market today. :( Awyong Jeffrey Mordecai Salleh 15:47, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Well you are not supposed to use new phones in this competition anyway. Maybe they will lower it when todays phones become "old".

[edit] History?

This article really caught my attention- I'd like to know just how this "sport" came into being. Can anyone start up a history section on it? --Wafulz 15:31, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

I have just staarted a page on the history, but the title needs tweaking, any suggestions? signed, anonymous.
