I need 1000 Phones and I Need Them Now
Nextel must be desperate for movie product placements. A man in prison called Nextel pretending to be a movie exec and requested that they send out phones to various locations to be included in movie shoots. Over time he got Nextel to send out about 1000 handsets. I think its pretty gutsy of the guy to ripoff the company that uses Dennis Franz as their spokes person. Just imagine what Andy Sipowicz would have done to this guy if it were his case.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
