From Engadget, “In a rather silly publicity stunt sponsored by Motorola, Bader will attempt to climb Mount Everest in late May, and, weather permitting, place a phone call from the summit through a tower located in China that has a clear line of sight to the north side of the peak.”
I can see so many ways that this can go wrong for Motorola: Motorola Sponsors Everest Death. Motorola Sponsors Dropped Call From Mt. Everest. I wonder who he’ll call? Motorola better make sure it’s someone from their team, otherwise in a few months we’re going to hear things like, “yeah, it came through but there was horrible reception!” in the news.
