Just read this one and was amazed by the creativity (and boredom?) of people... :
"Anyone wanting to throw away their mobile phone can do it in style and may even win a medal -- at the Mobile Phone Throwing World Championship, Finland's latest contribution to offbeat athleticism.
Originally a local event in this small town close to the Russian border, the seventh annual contest on Saturday drew some 100 throwers from as far afield as Canada, Russia and Belgium."
[...]
And the read this:
"Lund (i.e. the Founder -XM) says competitors all have their favourite throwing brand. "People choose by size, by colour or by how it fits in the hand ... Some believe a heavy model will ensure a long throw, some want a light one."

Throwing a mobile to long distances?! It costs more than a month's rent! Hey finns, will you throw a Nokia N-90 towards my direction? ;-)
