Everything I hate about cities, in the palm of my hand!

I mean, seriously, WTF? A little box to tell you where you can't park, where you can't get a table at a restaurant, where you can't hail a taxi, and where the bouncer won't let you in.

Extra bonus: ONE HANDED NAVIGATION. They use the term non-ironically. Oh yes, that's just the thing.

Avoiding too many people is a value-add for ME.

Actually, it sounds highly practical.

I would spend all of my time asking where all of the action ISN'T, so I can go somewhere quiet and uncrowded.

I would seriously consider spending money for that service, were I more of a going-out person.

Seriously.

Once upon a time, there was a Bisexual Hippie/Biker bar in the Haight. Then it got bought bought by a gay gay, and he wanted to make sure that only shorthaired Castro boys got in. Therefore, Hippies and Bikers would then never again darken his bar.

He did this by putting out a doorman on the street, who informed the Infidels that they were ruining the neighborhood.

Would the Blackberry™ warn me of this if I did a search?

You forgot the part of the story where his biological dad, who helped finance the bar, tried to get in, but the doorman refused. Apparently dad was too old for the clientele ....
