Switch off Mobile phone?? March 7th, 2006

I see sign saying to switch off my mobile phone at cinema theatre, public events, social gathering, hospitals, flights, temples and many other places.

Reason for their suggestion is:
a) mobile waves can create interference to other electronic eqipments
b) distract people from their current activity.

In first case it is essential to switch off or jam signals, in second case taking mobile into silent mode is sufficient.

But even if I have intension to shift my mobile into silent mode or switch off, I tend to forget about it.

I was thinking about it a while and come up with a idea which can be used to take mobiles to silent mode or entirely switch off.

It requires a simple application to be developed to integrate into symbian, symbian UIQ and other mobile operating systems.

Secondly requires a small equipment to be fitted at the door of such premises which defines mode (silent/switchoff).

When the person is entering into premises, his mobile application will talk with the device fitted and automatically takes action to either take it to silent mode or switch off entirely.

Application can be customised to allow user to stop automatic action (mainly for the people who are maintaining premises).

I would like your comments and feedback about this concept.

Incoming days I will be exploring possibilities of development, marketing and revenue models for this concept.
