Woman Gets Punched For Trying To Pay With A Credit Card

Tamara Perez caught a cab to her Manhattan home Tuesday, when she noticed that she didn't have enough cash. The cab had a credit card machine, so she decided to pay with credit.
According to Ms. Perez this decision caused the cabbie to punch her in the face.
"The guy said, 'I don't know how to use [the credit card machine],'" said Perez, who said the dispute began in front of her home near E. Third St. and Avenue C. "I said, 'I'm going to use this credit card machine.'"
Eying the gadget, Perez noticed it appeared operable and "not very difficult at all," she said. "I said, 'This is your responsibility to know how to use this machine. This is your cab. If you don't know how to use it, then I'm not paying you.'"
That's when things got physical, she said. She got out of the car and the driver, whose identity was not known, stepped in front of Perez and pushed her back into the cab. "I give you a punch in the face!" he told her, Perez said. "And he punched me in the face."

NEC Flask Phone

A Flask Cell Phone! Featuring a transparent design with a touchscreen surface on one side, you can monitor your fuel usage (speculatively ethanol) by how much liquid is remaining in the device. When it runs out your phone won't work anymore, simple as that.
This either sounds like an innovative idea or an accident waiting to happen.
