India, like many developing countries has problems with electricity, it often goes off for an hour or two, especially during peak hours. This can be more than annoying, it can be downright treacherous trying to stumble through a dark room full of obstacles or find what you need. Carrying around a flashlight would make sense but that’s just one more thing you’d need in your pocket and would be a pain, but they have a great solution over here- a flashlight built into every cell phone. Seriously, I have yet to see a phone without one over here. They’re a little LED light on top of the phone and they do a surprisingly great job lighting things up. Smart thinking- I’d actually like one on my phone back home- it comes in handy more than you’d think, even when the power is working!
Imagine all the ghost stories you could tell by the light of that cell phone! What a great idea!
