Unsafe At Any Speed?

How to turn off LTE on the HTC ThunderBolt [from the forums] | Android Central. With a tip of the hat to Ralph Nader, the question of the day is whether we are going to kill ourselves with the speedy, useful, essential gadgets we carry around with us these days. A few days with the Thunderbolt have convinced me that I may need an intervention. This thing is in a case on my hip, or stuck in my ear, or sitting in front of my face all day long. So, for our first lesson of the day, children, if you carry this thing into your car, plug it in to the cigarette lighter, and plug in a bluetooth speaker. You will need a two outlet dongle to do this, available for a few bucks at any drugstore or grocery store. Then, point your face to the windshield, and don't move it until the deer is in your headlights. Now, for the speed thing. LTE 4G eats batteries, especially if you have all sorts of information syncing going on. So, if you want to save batteries, learn how to turn stuff off when you aren't using the phone; like, when you go to sleep. Modern smartphones use a lot of data and a lot of battery; so, plug them in at night. Then, when you get up in the morning; or, in the case of the teens, afternoon, you will have a fresh smartphone to annoy others with.
