The rate of mobile/cell phone sales is rocketing.The underdeveloped world is using mobile networks for a cheap telecomms solution.However,the people still have to buy the phones.What happens to the old phones in the developed world? Landfill,or dusty drawers. Stop this selfish waste! The mobile companies are unlikely to do it, but how about an international network for recycling old mobiles,( and computers too, come to think of it), and ship them for distribution to those who could never afford one?

I am all for that
It appears we already rid ourselves of these unwanted gadgets by sending them overseas. . .
