Has anyone seen the commercials for this product? It's called "Fast Forward" by Cingular (not sure if anyone else is offering this service). The idea is you set your cell phone into this cradle and it forwards calls made to your cell to your land line, and it doesn't take up your anytime minutes... the commercials for this product have various people running around their house with their phone ringing in the background (which PISSES me off cause they use my old ringtone and always makes me look at my phone), then they get to the phone and they complain about how they always miss their calls and how this new accessory solves that problem.
so my observation is... if you're putting your cell into a cradle when you get home, won't you always know where your phone is, negating this advantage? Does this strike anyone else as bad marketing?
I just plug mine into the charger when i get home, so other than having my home phone ring more often and not having it count against my cell plan, what's the point?

I thought the same thing when I first saw it. Pretty dumb, if you ask me.
