Text Messaging Mouse Execution Station
October 9, 2007
Tell me that you’ve seen something like this before! Rentokil’s RADAR trap brings the pain in execution-style. The device has infrared beams, a trick floor, and quickly dispenses a lethal amount of poison gas on all who dare to enter.
Once the device completes the execution, it quickly fires off a text message to your mobile phone to alert you that your rodent removal needs have been taken care of. It then prepares itself for the next execution.
Sprint CEO Gary Forsee Steps Down
October 9, 2007
Sprint Nextel announced today that Gary Forsee is stepping down as the company’s chairman, president, and CEO. A committee of the board of directors has been formed to search for a new CEO and chairman. In the interim, Paul Saleh (Sprint’s current CFO) will serve as company CEO, and James Hance will serve as president.
In the official press release, Sprint told the public that they would like to thank Gary for his service and proceeded to kick him to the ground. It appear from the release that Forsee was forced out because the board felt like they needed new leadership to move forward.
I guess we’ll see how it works out, Sprint definitely needs to change something to do better in the mobile phones market - they’ve been struggling for quite some time.
