They don't NEED snazzy technology, but they can negotiate price, for instance, or listen to messages to choose whyo their john will be and then send him a picture of hersef so he can decide if it's really her he wants.

Ha ha ha ha. I guess the pictures make it more official, though - like you will get paid at the end of the trick.

I don't know. I don't think most high school girls need snazzy technology in order to get laid by 40 year old men.

There's also some evil involved in camera phone usage. It makes it easier to "do" enjo kosai in Japan, which is basically teen prostitution. You can send your picture to prospective Johns.

Since Hulk broke out on the Web, going to advance screenings in L.A. has become such a drag. Security guards digging around in your bag looking for the camera phone, video camera, Elph... They never seem to believe it when you say you're carrying your camera for protection.

Seeing that so few people have decent cell phone manners, I can only sigh at the thought of having to adjust to crappy digital cell phone behavior. "You'll never guess where I am! I'm in a theater watching a movie! Wait, let me take a photo and send it to you!"
