The "smart" phones aren't smart enough; mine failed to synchronise with
the car when I was in it, but when making a call from the other end of
the house, I had no voice path - the other party was saying "hello hello"
on the car speaker. Had to go sit in the car to complete the call. I may
only be 70, but I do pine for the old days. (Except for being able to
charge the EV off-grid, and drive on photons. Oh, and PCB CAD, like
Kicad. The old crepe tapes were not optimal. And cheap PCBs off the
internet in a week or two. Damn nifty.) But phones, nah!
