Ever dropped your cell phone into the toilet? your toilet? any toilet? ever lost a precious cell phone to the cold harshness of water and humidity? if the answer is yes, here's something that might cheer you up the next time you get too clumsy, or totally drunk in the bathroom: Washington Post's writer Ernesto Londoño writes about his beloved Blackberry's saving crusade using a bowl of rice.

If you are here reading this post then you're probably very old or very bored. Everyone (and I mean everyone) under the age of 40 probably knows what a SMS is and use it on a daily basis. If you are old it's more than ok with us - we respect the golden age people. If you are very bored, we hope you are enjoying yourself – that's why we are here.

Here is a list of 10 interesting tidbits of information which you probably never knew about the world's largest mobile phone manufacturer: Nokia. A special hat tip to NewLaunches and Darla Mack for the research and exposure:

PTT is short for Push to Talk, or maybe you know it by the name 'Beep-beep' or 'chirp'. PTT is a conversation method between two devices, using a two way radio button to switch between a voice reception mode to a transmit mode.

Such a small word yet such a big important meaning, WAP is short for Wireless Application Protocol. With this secure specification we can access information with our mobile phones, pagers, two-way radios, smart phones and communicators. WAP supports most of the wireless networks that we know like GSM, CDMA, TDMA and IDEN, and also supports all of the operating systems.

I am sure you all heard the expression Wi-Fi, but what the hell is it? And what is the connection between Wi-Fi and cellphones?

Short for Code-Division Multiple Access which is being used by cellular providers like Sprint PCS and Verizon. As opposed to GSM technology, the CDMA does not assign a specific frequency to each user. Instead, every channel uses the full available spectrum.

I'm sure that all of you at one point have heard the word GSM or GSM phone, right? But did you ever wonder what the hell GSM really is? Well, I can probably write thousands of words about it…but I won't. I will make it short and simple so that in the end you will get it.
